THE LAB.SESSIONS #02 - BEATRIZ SARMENTO

VENUE

THE LAB.YRINTH SPACE

DATE

In the second edition of THE LAB.SESSIONS programme, we welcomed multidisciplinary artist Beatriz Sarmento, who presented her performance piece “eu não sei ler lábios, quando as pessoas falam em silêncio”.

“Ler em movimento é uma dança em voz alta. As palavras deambulam entre a voz e o silêncio, equilibram-se na ponta da língua, assumem-me, dão forma. O corpo ocupa-se de ecos, significados, dicções.”

- Beatriz Sarmento
