With the Words and Practices Program, we aim to bring choreographers and the artistic community closer together. Over the course of one day structured into a practical part and a theoretical part, participants will have the opportunity to experience creation processes and what they are based on, thus helping to deepen readings of the invited artist’s works or performative proposals.

In this session, Tânia Carvalho invites participants to try out some of the practices that form part of her choreographic process. Through the creation and transmission of movement, it is explored how the material transforms as it passes from one body to another and how it can rise to a composition. Just as the same musical score takes on different expressions in the hands of different musicians, so too does a choreographic phrase take on its own expression through the person performing it.
During the session, you will need to use your own device to make simple recordings of movements. If you do not have a mobile phone with a camera or similar equipment, we will have a set available to share.
