As part of Germinal 2023, Cão Danado presents Puppet Workshop with Catarina Falcão. This workshop is based on the creation of figurative or formal characters from the exploration of paper and the various possibilities of working this material, in order to develop a marionette or functional and expressive object in this practice. This premise aims to refer to the basic techniques of manipulation as an exercise in a poetic universe and body-object relationship. This workshop is aimed at anyone interested in starting a first contact with the practice of poetic universe-puppet-object and the relationship with the body.

“People think they live more intensely than animals, plants and even more than things. Animals sense that they live more intensely than plants and things. Plants dream that they live more intensely than things. But things endure and this endurance is more life than anything else." Olga Tokarczuk
