Wording Dances presents a series of episodes, both in english and portuguese, where renowned artists from the international contemporary dance scene discuss matters which make of dancing and choreographing an inexhaustible terrain of experimentation, problematization and thinking.
In a co-production between Estúdios Victor Córdon and Parasita Association, it is curated by Carlos Manuel Oliveira.
In this new episode of Wording Dances, we invited Ana Borralho and João Galante to write and read us a text entitled “Dark Room”.
Borralho and Galante work together on their own performance, dance, installation, photography, sound and video art projects, which they present all around the world. They met when they were studying visual arts at the Ar.Co, in Lisbon, and in the 90s they worked regularly together as actors/co‑creators in the theater group OLHO in Cacilhas/Almada. They co-founded the non-musicians band Jimmie Durham and the cultural association casaBranca, they were co-curators of the Electrolegos electronic music festival in Lagos, and they direct the Verão Azul festival in Lagos and Loulé. They live and work in Lisbon and Lagos.
The series is published in the following platforms:
Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Pocket Casts, Radio Public, Castbox Soundcloud e Amazon Music.
