Summary

This research-création work explores the intersection of identity, memory, and narrative through the lens of pilgrimage on the via Podiensis, one of the historic routes to Santiago de Compostela. The study demonstrates how the act of walking—whether for solace, remembrance, or self-discovery—can serve as a metaphor for confronting personal and collective pasts. Through the protagonist Alice's journey, the research illustrates the transformative power of movement, encounters, and contemplation in navigating emotional turmoil. Additionally, it examines the narrative technique of fragmentation, highlighting how it challenges readers' perceptions of history and invites them to engage actively with multiple interpretations. The work combines literary analysis with personal reflection, offering a unique approach to understanding identity through the lens of transhumance—a traditional seasonal migration—and modern pilgrimage.
