Join creator, director, playwright and performer of REMINISCENCIA, Malicho Vaca Valenzuela, in a workshop exploring digital narrative as a form and research method for artistic creation.

Workshop Description

This is a practical workshop addressing themes of identity and geography. Through creative exercises, participants create a virtual mise-en-scène that tells a story linked to their own biography and the territory they inhabit. How do I understand myself through my ancestors? What stories do my family photographs hold? When was the last time I looked at the past? …these are some of the questions that we put in tension to generate the creative gesture that elaborates an artistic piece.

General objective

To investigate the possibilities of digital tools to articulate personal and collective memory in dialogue with the territories we inhabit, and mobilizing of performing arts practices in a situation of personal confinement to generate new virtual aesthetic territories.

Creative vocabulary

The languages for our research are approached as: dramatic arts in direct linkage with multimedia arts and techno-poetics.
