WORKSHOPS & LECTURES
How to picture our emotions- Animation Creation
Maede Jenab - Animation Director – IRAN
Maede Jenab - Animation Director – IRAN
from 14.00 to 18.30 workshop (second floor):
What is poetry? Is it rhymes? Beautiful words? Emotional expressions? We try to define it by our own words and conceptions. What do we associate with it and what image it evokes in our mind. This workshop has two objectives. First we want to interrogate this personal understanding. We try not to be academic but personal. We try to dig into our individual experiences and crystalize an emotional meaning, an image. Second with these images as a starting point we want to make a collective video. We try to picture our emotions and make them visible for others. The result will be a short video that accompanies our new found personal definition of poetry. For this bring a poem and your preferred media or support material (laptop, tablet, camera, painting or drawing materials, etc).

DANCE PERFORMANCE
Abierto al tiempo (Open to time)
Laura R. Tolentino MEXICO
Time is a healer even if you want to escape, it shows you to dance with your shadows at the rhythm of the change. This is a lesson I've learned and remembered once again, because time is the true wisdom that my soul can trust in the end.

Journey to the centre of the present
La Conirina Constanza Carlesi CHILE
This Journey to the centre of the present »is an experiment. A ritual performance that seeks to come close or to bring us closer. To call for Breflection through action, through the active participation of those present around the circle. A poet, a character, one more human being serves as a guide on this journey that we will undertake together. The objective in this case is not to tell a story but to have an experience in the face of the ritual of the four elements.
