The Continual Shape of Darkness is a space of encounter to work with processes that transit through the body and emotions. In this occasion, the schedule will consist of two work sessions and one closing session through the 3-day workshop.During the process, each individual will work daily on small activities: incorporating the consumption of certain foods, fasting in specific moments and repeating a sequence of exercises.
The workshop proposes to escape the boundaries of normative language to construct characters from the inability to explain what is happening to us. Continual operations of translation will serve as a guide to codify our own subjectivity: meditative exercises of drawing, the emotional abstraction of food and colour, classification of mental images through code, the generation of rhythms, intervals and repetitions as alternative possibilities of communication that will lead to actions that the characters will carry out.
