ESCOLA DOS LABIRINTOS: 29 – 31 January 2026, Arquipélago – Contemporary Arts Centre (São Miguel)

Workshop–Installation–Performance “The Island Without Wind”,
For children aged 6 to 10.

On this imaginary island—without plants, animals, people, sounds, stones or wind—children were invited to invent everything that would come to inhabit it.

Working in small groups, participants explored this territory through a series of workshop-based and performative devices that combined drawing, sound, language and movement, giving shape to landscapes, presences and atmospheres in constant transformation.

The installation was activated as a living territory, continuously reshaped through collective action.
