SCHOOL OF LABYRINTHS: 7 – 8 September 2024, CIRCUIT – Braga Media Arts Educational Service (Braga)

Workshop–Installation–Performance: “The City Without Doors and Windows”
For children aged 6 to 10

In this labyrinth-city, a paper architecture already born as a ruin, children were invited to discover pathways, sounds, shadows, imaginary animals, dancing words, and drawings inhabiting the space.

Working in small groups, participants explored different layers of the city through workshop-based and performative devices, moving between drawing, sound, architecture, and poetry, flying above it and diving into its smallest and most microscopic materials.

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