Matéria
Encounters, open to the community, to share practices of different performing arts, that have the body as the primary vehicle of expression and that propose dealing with the with world from the body and its multiple dimensions. Matéria is an open studio that proposes thinking together as an embodied process.
Once a month, two artists come together, for 4 hours, to dance and think with whoever wants to join.
Matéria’s first edition happened between January 2019 and July 2020, in a total of 15 encounters, that circulated around 9 different spaces of Lisbon. The first edition was documented through the podcast 2 dedos de Matéria.
The second edition will involve 10 different artists, in a total of 10 encounters, between October 2023 and July 2024.
Open:
to all people, with or without training in performing arts, of all
genders, nationalities, professions, religions, occupations, ethnic origins,
with or without disabilities.
