Pele Nossa Pele
Rita Vilhena | Yael Karavan
26 November to 2 December 7pm
Directed to all audience
Pele Nossa Pele is a video art-dance filmed in Coentral, Castanheira de Pêra. The film observes how we influence each other, body-Nature-body, and how we are the continuation of one another, highlighting the symbiosis between women’s bodies and the landscape. In this site-specific installation version, we have chosen 2 elements of the original film (36 minutes) and created 2 new videos (10 minutes each), engaging in dialogue with each other in the space of the cisterna of Faculdade de Belas-Artes, separated by plants and creating a natural border between them both as well as between the spectators and the work
