“This new work ‘Care Zine’ came from conversations about our practises, realising at the heart of it we are centred on care for our communities in an ever precarious and changing world. Through zine making as self expression and a cathartic art form, we realised participants benefited from the space to make and play and that play and freedom were a great part of caring from each other."

In a cyclical feat of endurance and precision, Blood Show is a raw, euphoric choreography between 3 figures and 75 litres of fake blood. A call to action to put what’s inside on the outside and defend against a violent gaze, Blood Show questions rebirth and how we all carry our ghosts with us.

“Iniciando em 29 de novembro de 2022 e indo até 08 de dezembro do mesmo ano, o Festival que teve curadoria geral de Eduardo Bruno e curadoria adjunta de Aires Furtado, Marie Auip e Walídrio Castro, contou com uma programaçao realizado após uma ressaca de alegria e desgaste em decorrência do período eleitoral que acabava de se encerrar no Brasil. Esse livro, é parte desse processo, não é um resumo, muito menos outras partes que compuseram o Festival em sua 4ª edição e ainda continuam se desdobrando. Esperamos que esse livro conecte ao seu desejo de esperançar e construir outros modos de aglomereção e comunidades. Que o corpo se movimente e que o desejo ganhe novas vazões, bom proveito.”
