Chão de Urtigas – costumes

Categoría

Presented in Perpetuo Socorro (Porto) within the program "Semente-mundo" - by the association EARTHSEA. 2024.

Thinking and making of the costumes for the project “Chao de Urtigas” in collaboration  with Isabel Carvalho.

In “Chão de Urtigas,” we are taken to a world where three special creatures — bats, moths, and butterflies — face invisible yet very real challenges. Through a staged reading, we discover how the excess of artificial light in cities threatens the existence of these fascinating beings. This piece invites us to reflect on the words “Silence,” “Emptiness,” and “Nothing,” and what they truly mean in the context of our natural world. Is silence really the absence of sound? And what exists in emptiness? “Chão de Urtigas” is a story for all ages, especially children and youngsters.
