Dance therapy and colors laboratory

The motto of the Colors Sitges Queer Fest is LIVE CREATE LOVE, what better sums up this motto than a laboratory of dance, music, movement, space and painting?

The laboratory will combine dance and movement, space and images, words and narration.

To carry out this workshop entitled Mouve to be different, we have the invaluable collaboration of the internationally recognized Italian therapist Raffaella Gallo, president of the Associazione Culturale MAC MovimentoArteCreatività, artistic director of the To (rino) Be Different Festival.

Mouve to be different is designed and built for action, the body in movement allows itself to express itself and relate and, in its possibilities, it expands and manifests “differences”. Being different means allowing the space of bodies to build its own intimate and relational performative dimension. Being different is a voice that reveals the relational possibility of all.

Play, exchange and music allow us to model forms of relationship and communication in a defined time, that of the laboratory.

The objective of this participatory workshop is the construction of a final performance open to the public, a way to specify the transformation we want. The laboratory is open to all, the number of participants will oscillate between 10 and 20 seconds of the workspace that will be in the Escorxador in terms of the laboratory and in the open air with respect to the final performance.

Raffaella Gallo will come directly from Torino (Italy) to offer us this workshop.

A unique experience to live and express the “differences”.

Languages: Italian, Spanish and English.
