Caixa para guardar o vazio
Event
Caixa para guardar o vazio (Box to keep the void) is a performing sculpture with a pedagogical angle, created in 2005 after an invitation by Teatro Viriato. This box is matter, form and also an event. It is a place to explore with one’s body, in a process of individual or collective discovery. It presents itself as a “closed wooden box” that is activated by the bodies of two dancers, who unveil it in dialogue with groups of children through movement and voice. The space opens, folds, unfolds and expands itself, creating an atmosphere of communication and discovery that ends with the revelation of the sculpture's inside, that’s when we realise that our body is also a place.
