LINHA DE FUGA
November 2025 – January 2026
Escola Secundária de Odemira
A research project that began with the question “What if, instead of fear?”, a theme running through the Culture and Education Biennial #2, organised by the National Arts Plan during 2025/26.
This question sparked a process of shared reflection in the classroom, which extended to Odemira Secondary School and took shape as an exhibition.
The aesthetic challenge of this residency stemmed from drawing as a central discipline, exploring various intersections with sound, sculpture, text, and image through both two-dimensional and three-dimensional perspectives. This approach followed a strategy of developing diverse individual and collective exercises/challenges that confront and address the initial question from multiple viewpoints.
The exhibition presented at the CRIAR Space of CACO, from January 17th to 24th, results from a challenge issued by Teatro Só for a collaborative work process developed in close articulation with teacher Gonçalo Condeixa, the project featured the active participation of students from the 12th-grade drawing class at Odemira Secondary School (Amandeep Singh, Beatriz Vieira, Caetana Coutinho, Catarina Inácio, Eduardo Poeira, Harshdeep Kaur, Inês Araújo, Luan Campos, Maria Meirinho, Maria Cabecinha, Matias Baço, Maya Bauman, Nana Brück, Natália Araújo, Nuno Francisco, Saxm Pandir, Teresa Montemor, Prabhjot Sandhu, Monika Pun)..
SOLO PARA UMA PAISAGEM
October 2024 – January 2025
Escola Secundária de Odemira
A research project stemming from the Landscape of Odemira, exploring and bridging an objective and a subjective perspective of the territory, in its material and immaterial dimensions.
The aesthetic challenge of this residency originated from drawing as a central discipline, testing various intersections with sound and sculpture through two-dimensional and three-dimensional approaches. This followed a strategy of developing diverse individual and collective exercises and challenges.
The final exhibition of the developed works was presented at the CRIAR Space of CACO, from January 11th to 18th, 2025. This project resulted from a challenge issued by Teatro Só for a collaborative work process led by Nuno Torres, developed in close articulation with Gonçalo Condeixa, and featuring the active participation of students from the 11th-grade drawing class at Odemira Secondary School (Aruna Williams, Beatriz Rodrigues, Beatriz Vieira, Caetana Coutinho, Catarina Ferreira, Catarina Inácio, Eduardo Poeira, Francisco Sousa, Inês Araújo, Inês Kuzmin, Júlia Eufigénio, Luan Campos, Maria Meirinho, Maria Cabecinha, Matias Baço, Maya Bauman, Nana Brück, Natália Araújo, Nuno Francisco e Teresa Montemor).
ESCUTA – SONS QUE DESENHAM PAISAGEM
September – December 2023
Escola Secundária de Odemira
A research residency centered on the sounds and sonic qualities of Odemira, exploring active and collective listening. The project challenged the involvement and participation of the school community through a methodology comprising a series of games and exercises.
This exploratory process involved constructing a sonic, visual, and material cartography composed of diverse elements (landscape sounds, voice, music, objects, drawings, etc.). These elements were consolidated into components for the creation of a sound piece for radio and a final exhibition.
