#6 Excursion at night+info
20 jul / 18h - 24h
This excursion will take us outside São Miguel, but without taking our feet off the island.
If the artist Flávio Rodrigues proposes to us a quarry (a territory highly transformed by the human being) as scenery for his performance, the artist Alice dos Reis leads us to the Celestial Space (a landscape that we cannot manipulate). However, it will be Santa Maria's Space Innovation Ecosystem that will serve as an interface between our place in the island and the cosmos, because night will fall for its observation and, behind, we will leave Caldeira Velha.
Excursion guided by: Pedro Garcia and Alice dos Reis
Pedro Garcia is a science communicator at the Astronomical Observatory of Santana - Azores, where he is responsible for the communication strategy. He also works in the production of exhibition, multimedia and educational contents.
Alice dos Reis works on the boundaries between reality and fiction to speculate about the human condition, investigating and questioning political, social and ecological dimensions.
