The audience dives inside the piano, throughout the show, observing in real time the techniques used by the pianist, as well as images that inspired the music of the album.

 At the end there will be a talk with the artist.

5 O’CLOCK TEA – Ask to four friends and one more that never arrives.

The present, the here and now, while sipping and enjoying the essence of the infusion. But, contrary to what is expected, peace does not happen. And the utopian calm of tea contrasts with the anxious situations and unforeseen events that arise from it – the water that never heats up, the tea that is never ready and the friend that never arrives.

Former Captaincy of Aveiro’s Port Gallery

Dialogue based on the exhibition. What does art tell us? What can you ask from art? Does art respond? What answers can we find [or create?].

In this philosophical dialogue we invite the participants to stop, observe, ask and dialogue. The starting point for the dialogue is the exhibition of the XVI International Biennial Artistic Ceramics of Aveiro. The requirements for participating in this dialogue are curiosity and willingness to dialogue with other people.
