The performer, creator and teacher from Póvoa de Varzim will be at EVC working on her new project, which, as the title suggests, explores the different dimensions involved in the act of crying.

Taking crying as the project's key concept, the idea is to study and understand different realities. To this end, the aim is to combine research into literature, photography, film and sculpture with an exploratory use of the sensorial body - the physical experimentation of "action-concepts" that allow us to deepen, intensify and lead the work through various themes. Among the themes to be addressed are the obligation not to cry and crying banned from public space; distances and limits, layers and transparencies; the mediatization and instrumentalization of crying; metamorphosis, death and rebirth.

Crying is one of the bodily expressions that we experience most viscerally, but it is still very absent from the life of cities, consigned to a solitary act. Is it repressed because it is private or is it private because it is repressed?
