Rooted in the eruptive geology of the Azores, this performance-installation listens to the planet as a restless body. The work explores \u201cinquieta\u00e7\u00e3o\u201d \u2014 unrest, unease \u2014 as a planetary, bodily, and relational condition: vibrational, tectonic, and imaginative. The shifting ground beneath us echoes a time when extraction has become the dominant relation, yet the body-planet resists control, announcing other forces and endings. Developed through field recordings, collaborative research, improvisation, and experimentation during residencies in S\u00e3o Miguel and Faial , the piece also carries the imprint of the traumatic 2025 wildfire that devastated Serra da Estrela, including S\u00e1\u2019s own village. <\/p>\n
Here, the piano becomes not an instrument of sound production but of capture \u2014 a skin attuned to subterranean geological movements, a place where invisible forces converge. This is the first phase of a larger project that will continue after the Biennial across other residencies and stages, including Avista Vulc\u00e3o (Capelinhos, Faial), Serralves (Porto), gnration (Braga), and Culturgest (Lisbon).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1538,"template":"","event-category":[69,83],"class_list":["post-1536","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event-category-symposium","event-category-performance-installation"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
