CORPO PAISAGEM, CORPO ABSTRATO - Abdoulaye Konaté (França/Costa do Marfim)

The workshop is based on the creative process of Humming bird / Colibri. It is a process in which the artist Abdoulaye relates his origins to the dance of the panther men, in which he questions the world of today and relates it to the world of tomorrow. Thus, the work will focus on the singularity of each participant, deconstructing and reconstructing the metaphysical body towards an abstract body.

DATES: 11/07, THU and 11/09, SAT

TIME: 10 am to 1 pm

LOCATION: Sítio Ilha Verde
