Workshops, Exhibition: writing gatherings "spaces with words, words for..."

spaces with words, words for fantasies is an exhibition around the project encuentros de escritura - writing gatherings (2017 - ongoing). The writing gatherings are sensitive and political spaces where to reflect collectively on the territories we inhabit to create new narrative structures for the society we want to live in. By investigating our relationship with language, we intend to expand the dimensions of words so as to perceive beyond our ideas of what exists. We practice writing as a form of allowing sensitive knowledge to arise from listening, collecting and thinking together.

writing gatherings During the exhibition there will be two writing gatherings on site: on the 16th and 23rd of October from 15 to 18h. We will work in groups taking approaches from other disciplines such as cartographies, drawings and listening. We will practice collaborative thinking through questions and poems. Each writing gathering works as a unit, attending both days is not mandatory. No previous experience is required and each participant is invited to write in the language in which they feel most comfortable with. Come and join us!
