ARTISTIC RESIDENCY
Interpretation Theatre/Dance
DIRECTED BY TIAGO DE FARIA
ORIGINAL MUSIC COMPOSITION MÓNICA REIS
The square is an empty space, someone crosses it, a body. Over time, the action of this body is theatre, its movement is dance, and the sound it produces is music. This is how the total work of art is created: a body crosses an empty space while someone is looking at it.
After a research on what public space is and its transformations over time, "I hear you in the shadow of the empty square, but I don't know about you", was a community artistic residency with more than 30 people on stage, including the deaf community, with its dramaturgy, music and sound space developed throughout the POP Residency.
