Writing workshop
What makes us react, rise, and resist in a system that increasingly imposes silence, submission, and repetition? This is the question that drives and animates this research and creation.
A desirable future is not only projected into a distant horizon or great heroic narratives. It is built in the discreet gestures of the present: remembering, passing on, resisting, and nurturing connections.
Mara is a puppeteer and multidisciplinary artist. She explores various forms of expression such as puppet theater, photography, video, construction, sewing, and collective creation. The puppet is at the heart of her practice: it allows her to explore fragile states, to narrate without necessarily using words, and to create spaces for poetry and reflection. She often works with people from very diverse backgrounds, in a spirit of exchange, meeting, and sharing.
Her current work centers on the notions of resistance, memory, and tenderness. Through Sempreviva, she questions what helps us to stand, keep believing, and create connections despite the harshness of the system we live and grow in. During her residency, Mara Kyriakidou developed Sempreviva, a puppet performance currently in creation. This phase was dedicated to deepening the writing, refining the staging, and exploring more precisely the sonic and musical dimension of the show.
With violinist, improviser, and composer Dimos Vryzas, they will continue to weave together a sensitive universe, a meditation on presence and absence, an echo of the fragile continuity between the human, the mechanical, and the natural.
The research around resistance also continues through the development of artistic workshops linked to this theme, conceived as spaces for sharing, questioning, and collective expression.
Sempreviva is an attempt to create a sensitive space where traces, memories, and acts of resistance resonate, and where tenderness becomes an active force.
Because to believe is to fight. It is to stir, reflect, to challenge. And perhaps, in this way, something may blossom within us.
