ADDENDUM - WEEK 4
SEPTEMBER 6 to 10 in ITALY at La Radice Dei Viandanti
Creative Laboratory - Environmental Frequencies
Francesca Pedullá - Barış Mihçi​​​
with the special participation of Eric Acakpo
Sept 6th to 9th - 9:30 to 12:30
Sept 10th - 15:00 - 18:00 and 18:30 Performance
We will propose a subtle, mentally and physically stimulating inquest into internal and external conditions. We have prepared a variety of engaging games and perspective shifting tasks that disturb and refresh viewpoint and offer grounds for renewed understanding, awareness and choice of options. This session is meant as a key-in to tune into the self, and tune oneself to the local environment, to the others present, to the larger biosphere, the planet, the universe….
​
We will accompany you in transforming this experience into a creative journey, assisting you in an artistic re-elaboration that we will share at the end of the session.
​
Environmental Frequencies will culminate with a public showing
