Marià Villangómez (1913-2002) was one of the most important writers of Ibizan literature. Son of a good family, he studied in Palma, Murcia, Barcelona and Valencia. Writer of verses and Proses, taught in Sant Miquel de Balansat from 1946 where he began a prolific literary work that led him to publish in numerous magazines and newspapers. In 1989 he received the Premi d’Honor de les Lletres Catalanes, not only for his works but also for his translations of important works in Catalan. There are few who think that the current Ibizan writers have been very influenced by their publications, especially in the portraits of landscapes and their people.

Climbing up to the statue

Getting to this homage to Mariá Villangómez does not have much difficulty. The statue has been erected next to the church of Sant Miquel, in an enviable green landscape, and where the smell of countryside floods the whole place. Reach the town and turn left on the slope that goes to the church. The Road is marked with the cross along the road.
