About

"Fiction, awake action. Passed from action to silence. In the deliberate space for expression of will.
Living contrasts.
I saw and heard from afar.
Dilutes the body. Expand rhythm. Emotion paves the way.
In me forgotten, what comes from within invokes meaning.
Characters inhabit a place where memories arise. It seems like they've always been there. Spirits on the bridge with reality.
Sound shapes the earth with the intuition of a day in life. Seeds appear.
Path in representation in confrontation and distinction.
Stories told with grace and humor. We will hear past marks.
Transformation of matter, prayer, energy plants the seed.
By invitation of Chaos, conception."

biographies

Cecília de Fátima

Born in the Fontainhas neighborhood (Porto), she is eager to pursue transformation.
Currently, in addition to the study and deep reading of astral maps and the tarot de marseille and a daily routine of intense physical exercise with training for the next marathon included.
His performance work can be seen as a conduit for a kind of psychomagical realism with spontaneity and inclusive performances leaving audiences in awe and wonder.

Ece Canlı
Ece Canlı (PT/TR) is a musician, artist and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of body politics, extralinguistic expressions, myths and extended vocal techniques, as ways of exploring the limits and possibilities of the sounding body in order to re-articulate marginalised narratives. Her tools of investigation include voice, sound, performance, text and artefacts.

Maria Carvalho
Maria Carvalho born in the last century in 1959 in Paradela do Rio.
Still in the twenty-first century, she lives where she was born. Ceramics, agriculture, land, family and friendship are the pillars of her existence.

Paddy Shine
Paddy Shine is one of the most relentless instigators in the underground, both as part of Gnod and in myriad other projects.Imbued with cosmic magnificence and chaos energy, the music of Paddy Shine – both his work in Gnod, solo recordings and countless collaborations – simultaneously taps multiple facets of the modern underground and an ancient, palpably mossy bearing.
