Spirit of a Place 1.0: Bonfim – Campanhã
18, 19 & 20 September 2015
Walking performance by several stations.
Dance, performance, physical theater, video, the project crosses several artistic languages essentially to propose a great trip. Walkscapes, walking as an aesthetic practice. Drifting, wander, get lost in the city…
The spaces are the very first creative matter. The spaces and the discourses associated with them, community reports and other more poetic and philosophical references that we bring to work. Our major guides are the locals. We are interested in their experiences and testimonies, the cross territory of fiction and memory.
