COBERTOS PELO CÉU is a project centred on the relationship between landscape and language, between experience and poetic discourse. The project is driven by curiosity to know how landscape and habitation intersect in art, to explore how artistic discourse, as well as the elements that compose it, are sometimes poetically linked to environments, their fictions, their sensitive experience. The project is a collection of installations built from translations of outstanding landscape experiences lived by visual artists and the scene. Designed by artist and choreographer Gustavo Ciríaco, the collection involves the collaboration of Portuguese artists Jonathan Uliel Saldanha (Music), Miguel Palma (Visual Arts), Cláudia Dias (Dance), and Latin American choreographers Luciana Lara (Brazil), João Saldanha (Brazil), Ana Laura Lozza and Barbara Hang (Argentina) Javiera Péon-Veiga (Chile), English visual artist Rosie Heinrich (Uk) and German performer Siegmar Zacharias (De), whose works reveal a multiform and multidisciplinary spatial poetics.
For this edition of W&T, Gustavo materializes one of the first experiences and occupied the island with various landscapes built-in common.
