Prize awarded by FUNARTE aesthetic Interactions

 

Work we have done for four months at the Culture Pontoon Cia half Ball in São José dos Campos in São Paulo. Our meetings were marked by trials with shadow theater and dialogues on the oral traditions of the region. Many images and scenes emerged from these conversations that later resulted in the spectacle Much More Vida Severina . Oral traditions and stories of artists that point of culture served as inspiration for a trip we made to the interior of Minas Gerais in 2011 behind the Folia de Reis.
