We spent the Holy Week praying in the hope we could bring down the electricity bill.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

We thought that, as prayer\u00a0is a language fluently spoken<\/strong><\/a> in government offices, our claims could go deeper to change their\u00a0harmful<\/strong><\/a> protection policies for private electric companies for other policies that protect consumers against such unfortunate\u00a0price rises<\/strong><\/a> like those that have taken place in these last months during the cold wave.<\/p>\n

According to the predictions of the Ministry of Energy,\u00a0the electricity bill will go up <\/strong>100 euros<\/strong> <\/a>. Last January\u2019s bill was the second highest in history. While this goes on with private electrical energy,\u00a0solar energy is taxed,<\/strong><\/a> irresponsibly taxing energy self-consumption and\u00a0deterring the installation<\/strong><\/a> of solar panels which would feed electricity to millions of families in Spain.<\/p>\n

For all these reasons, on Palm Sunday, at sunset, we took our lights and went to Vallecas, right when people were returning to their homes after the long weekend. We carried out our action right in front of them and we saw that they perfectly understood the point we were making.<\/p>\n

6 intervened elements using more than 50 illuminated figurines that we placed in the niche-shaped hollows which make up the area\u2019s old light poles. We went as high as our ladders would allow us without exposing ourselves to high risks.<\/p>\n

We were, as usual, in the company of our good friends whom we want to thank: Marilena, Alex, Monta\u00f1a, Sami, Dris\u2026 a pleasure, as always. And, of course,\u00a0\u00a0Lola Mart\u00ednez<\/strong><\/a>, whose photos are the only account of what happened there.<\/p>\n

After this gratifying experience, we invited all the other citizens unhappy with this current situation to use tactics that can get them closer to the political elite more in their style and that, instead of demonstrating in the streets with signs and claims, they should massively pray with candles and incense at Puerta del Sol. This way, they won\u2019t be able to say they haven\u2019t undertood or that they haven\u2019t gotten it.<\/p>\n

Time of installation: and installation:4 hours.
\nDamages: none.
\nExhibition time: ??????????<\/p>\n

Aprovechamos la Semana Santa para rezar, a ver si as\u00ed logramos que baje el recibo de la luz.<\/a><\/p>\n

Hemos pensado, que al ser el rezo un idioma que se habla con fluidez<\/a> en los despachos gubernamentales, pueden calar mas hondas nuestras reivindicaciones para que cambien sus da\u00f1inas<\/a> pol\u00edticas de protecci\u00f3n a empresas el\u00e9ctricas privadas, por otras que protejan a los consumidores, contra subidas<\/a> de precios tan inoportunas como las que se han ido producciendo en los \u00faltimos meses, en plena ola de fr\u00edo.<\/p>\n

Y es que, seg\u00fan las previsiones del ministro de energ\u00eda, la factura de la luz este a\u00f1o<\/a> se encarecer\u00e1 en 100 euros <\/a>. El recibo de este pasado mes de Enero ya ha sido el segundo m\u00e1s caro de la historia. Mientras esto pasa con la energ\u00eda el\u00e9ctrica privada, se ponen impuestos al sol, <\/a>grabando irresponsablemente el autoconsumo energ\u00e9tico y desincentivando la instalaci\u00f3n<\/a> de paneles de energ\u00eda fotovoltaica, que solucionar\u00edan el abastecimiento de millones de familias en Espa\u00f1a.<\/p>\n

Por todo esto, el, Domingo de Ramos, a la caida de la noche, sacamos\u00a0 nuestras luces y nos fuimos a Vallecas, justo en el momento en el que los vecinos volvian a sus casas despu\u00e9s del fin de semana. Delante de ellos, llevamos a cabo la acci\u00f3n y comprobamos que se entend\u00eda a la perfecci\u00f3n el sentido de lo que est\u00e1bamos haciendo.<\/p>\n

6 elementos intervenidos, usando mas de 50 figuras religiosas iluminadas, que colocamos en los huecos con forma de hornacina que configuran los antiguos postes de luz de esa zona, alcanzando hasta la altura que nos permitieron nuestras escaleras sin tener que exponernos a riesgos extremos.<\/p>\n

Estuvimos acompa\u00f1ados como siempre de buenos amigos a los que queremos dar las gracias, Marilena, Alex, Monta\u00f1a, Sami, Dris\u2026 un placer, como siempre. Y por supuesto\u00a0 Lola Mart\u00ednez<\/a>, sin cuyas fant\u00e1sticas fotos no hubiera quedado rastro de lo que all\u00ed pas\u00f3.<\/p>\n

Despu\u00e9s de la gratificante experiencia, invitamos al resto de ciudadanos descontentos con la situaci\u00f3n actual, a que utilicen t\u00e1cticas de acercamiento a la \u00e9lite pol\u00edtica, m\u00e1s en su estilo, y que en vez de manifestrase en las calles con pancartas y proclamas, hagan un acto de oraci\u00f3n masiva con velas e incienso en la Puerta del Sol. As\u00ed no habr\u00e1 excusas para decir que no se enteraron o que no entendieron.<\/p>\n

Tiempo de montaje e instalaci\u00f3n: 4 horas.<\/em>
\nDa\u00f1os ocasionados: 0.
\nPermanencia de la intervenci\u00f3n: ????<\/em><\/p>\n
