Based on the exhibition Encenação and the exploration of the Zaratan gallery space, we propose to a younger audience a creative and plastic experience of creating possible scenarios, objects, and absurd scenes.
The workshop is structured around the exhibited pieces that refer to a stage presence and possible moments of staging, action, and choreographic construction.
The session will begin with a word game exercise to unlock ideas aimed at building freer, ruleless, symbolic, and absurd dialogues, followed by the group collectively creating objects and staging them within the exhibition space itself.
The proposal is to encourage participants to engage actively, in a free and relaxed manner, where freedom, chance, and absurdity drive the plastic composition.
