Students from the Digital Design and Creative Arts degree at the University of Lleida have presented their digital art works at nave 18 of the Museu Trepat in Tàrrega, inspired by the heritage of the old agricultural machinery factory.

This new series of creations is part of the exhibition Arxiu obert / Arxiu tancat (Open Archive / Closed Archive), an initiative that has already held five editions in the capital of Urgell since 2022. The projects on display stem from an artistic review of various types of archives, including inventories of pieces, oral sources, sounds, photographs, documentation, and reference publications.
The fifteen participating students, from the Polytechnic School and Teacher Training at the UdL, approach digital art from an experimental and contemporary perspective, offering a new look at the industrial legacy of Cal Trepat.
The exhibition Arxiu obert / Arxiu tancat can be visited through guided tours until May 19. To arrange a visit, prior contact is required at informacio@museutrepat.cat. Due to ongoing works on the roofs of Cal Trepat, this year's exhibition has been entirely concentrated in nave 18.
