Choreographer Madalena Victorino and a team of visual artists will bring joy and relaxation to homes in the municipalities of Monchique and Odemira as part of another edition of Lavrar o Mar's 'LABAT - Actividades de Formação entre o Laboratório de Prática Artística Participativa e o Atelier de Artista' programme. From a joyful musical context and through the creation of moments of music, movement, and live singing, for example, they will listen to and create amusing, poetic and even absurd stories to work on with older people in the creation of drawings, objects, paintings and collages that start from memories and move towards each person's fantasies.
Contemporary micro-works will be created with a certain age, sui generis Christmas presents to give to those who dare to receive them. A map of affections will be built for each older person so that this Christmas 2024, they won't lack company and warmth around them.
Lavrar o Mar's 'LABAT— Actividades de Formação entre o Laboratório de Prática Artística Participativa e o Atelier de Artista' programme aims to create spaces for experimentation and creation where people can experience their own imagination, realisation, and thinking through the arts. At the same time, this participating public contributes to the investigation and research carried out by the artists we have invited.
