RÉGÉNÈRE.

It is a reflection on the ability of some organisms to regenerate a lost part of the body, the adaptation process, and its sole purpose, survival.

Regenerate is change, transition, evolution.

DESCRIPTION.

My proposal offers a prior meeting-workshop with people interested in investigate and explore widely the concept of regeneration from different perspectives, either using the body and improvisation, or other tools. The end will be the research and exchange of ideas.

Perceptions and impressions of what emerged in the collective meeting will merge to the Régénère piece, having a flexible structure, and opening up new possibilities with each encounter. As the concept implies, there will always be change, that will be the main focus, constant regeneration influenced from sharing.
