TEENS/ADULTS
A dot and A line
A line is an identifiable path created by a point moving in space. Lines can be curved or straight of combinations of both. There’s an endless variety in what we think of as a line. It is one-dimensional and can vary in width, direction, and length. Lines can be literal or implied. Each of the different ways we draw or represent a line gives it unique characteristics.
This is a workshop with straight, vertical, horizontal , diagonal lines. Lines that you encounter around you, that surround you, that follow you everywhere, that are there because of you. The participants will go deeper in understanding and exploring the various facets and possibilities that can be offered by a simple dot moving in space, leaving behind its traces in the form of a Line.
Follow them and guide them on paper to create a matrix of your being amongst them.
Each work shall be created to express nothing more than the logic of their own creation, and yet within these rigid compositional constraints, "an infinite number of very different developments can be evolved according to individual inclination and temperament."

Ingredients of Encounters
Ingredients of Encounters invites you to a participatory performance, a site-making/marking exercise, which involves writing, pouring, burying, connecting, collective gestures, and making happenstances concrete. Taking off from the form of the workshop, this exercise will rely on the connections that emerge during the gathering to unpack the ingredients of everyday encounters in the urban sphere.
As a key to your participation, we urge you to bring an “ingredient” to the gathering. An ingredient can be anything edible (or not), or any object, or material with which you already have a story or would like to create one.
