the mystery of invention during the creative act

GEMEAMENTE: to merge the word into many voices. Passing it through a ring of inventions.

Dancing as Political Healing

Hennessy will share ideas and stories that circle around the potential for experimental dance and improvisation practices to contribute to political healing. If the harm or trauma is political (structural, legal, normative), should the healing be entirely personal? Jewish anarchist Gustav Landauer (1870-1919) meets Black lesbian feminist Audre Lorde (1934-1992) in a Fake Healing clinic at Forum Dança in 2025. What is happening? What is possible?

Organização: Forum Dança e Associação Parasita

The lecture will be conducted in English.

Márcio K. Canabarro

25th June 2025, from 18h00 to 20h00

Auto-Fiction as Awareness Practice

(Auto-Ficção como Prática de Consciência)

This “lecture”, Auto-Fiction as Awareness Practice, explores storytelling, embodiment, and perception. It studies how writing and dance serve as tools for self-translation, allowing the artist to reshape identity, memory, and reality itself. As vision fades, the body becomes a living text—one that the audience reads, interprets, and possesses.

The “lecture” disturbs ideas of truth, proposing fiction as a deeper form of honesty. It teases the gaze, asking: Can vision divorce point of view? What is more real—the act of creation or the circumstances of the creator?

Through “science”, “dance”, and radical self-narration, the speaker performs an experiment in presence and disappearance, where seeing itself is queered by its biochemical origins. This is not just a talk; it is an invitation to surrender—to fiction, to movement, to heart brakes (because they can produce so much writing).

And afterwards? We’ll drink. Or we’ll talk. Or both.

This lecture will be conducted in English.

Márcio K. Canabarro was born in 1985 in Brazil. He is a dancer and choreographer with a BA in Social Communication, a Performing Major from SEAD, and a certified Embodied Myoreflex Therapy Practitioner.

Márcio is interested in exploring the intersections of narratology, performance and mindfulness practices. His work focuses on the socio-emotional implications of cultural biases around vision in shaping the intimacy, self-esteem, and social roles of the blind, visually impaired, loosing eye-sight individuals.

He has a degenerative disease called retinitis pigmentosa, which causes progressive loss of peripheral vision and eventually blindness. Rather than treating it as an obstacle, he views it as a creative collaborator that requires adaptability, inventiveness, and connection. Reframing the experience of visual impairment not as an isolating one, but as an opportunity to mediate an alternative point of awareness.

Márcio also works as a freelance dancer for Hodworks (HU), CRANKY BODIES/ a company (DE) and Meg Stuart/ Damaged Goods (BE/DE). In the past he has collaborated with Benoit Lachambre, Sara Shelton Mann, Mark Thompkins, Keith Henessy and others.

First Light: Longevity of Practice with (Soma)tic Rituals

2025 is CAConrad’s 50th anniversary of writing poetry, and over the past half-century, they have known many brilliant artists who stopped doing their work for various reasons, from being overwhelmed by their new and growing families or jobs to disappointments with the reception of their art. Using (Soma)tic Rituals can keep us vibrating on the frequency of our talents no matter what challenges lie ahead.

We will focus on Intrusions, which vary from holding onto negative comments about our art to doubts that hinder moving forward with the things we want to create. These voices often come forward in times of crisis and shut many artists down. (Soma)tic Rituals can be used to remain focused, always treating our creativity like a vital organ.

Former US-Poet Laureate Tracy K. Smith wrote in The New York Times, “CAConrad’s poems invite the reader to become an agent in a joint act of recovery, to step outside of passivity and propriety and to become susceptible to the illogical and the mysterious.”

This talk will be conducted in English.

Viktória Kaslik

16 April 2025, from 18h00 to 20h00

Eartnail, wild endive, witch gowan. Bitter in taste, detoxifying in effect, and protector of Gdansk (PL). Dandelion emerged for a co-creative artistic research trajectory hosted by Viktória Kaslik (HU), starting in 2022. Running for more than two years on the axis of the Carpathian basin and the Baltic seashores, making Viktória return to Gdansk twice, it was dandelions leading the inquiry on how contemporary human-made law is shaping the way we relate to land. The inquiry resulted in a protocol in which in her capacity as a jurist, as a performance act, she transferred the legal power she received from the nation-state as a practicing jurist.

The protocol invites the reader to establish their relation with dandelions, to eliminate the old legal structures, and to give space to the establishment of dandelion laws to emerge. The protocol was given a visual world by Edyta Majewska-Rosińska (PL), and the transfer of legal power was witnessed and co-performed by Gdansk citizens, and co-choreographed by Aleks Borys (PL).

In the lecture, I wish to share the research behind the protocol with you, the journey of working with plant spirits in legal reconfiguration. I invite you to drink dandelion tea together.

Palestras PACAP 8 / MyS | Viktória Kaslik | Forum Dança

“She is growing for the light, to reach the Sun and eventually to become the Moon, living in eternal cyclicality. She is traveling to places where her message needs to be heard, where her nurturing is needed, where water needs to be kept, where the condensed soil needs to be loosened, where the concrete needs to be cracked. Mniszek Lekarski is cracking the concrete with her timing. She came to retrieve our broken fabric. It is not about reclaiming any claim, yet it is sourced and pouring from beyond the physical plant body, from a field of the archetypal dandelion-ness. From the cosmos constituted of an invisible fabric, a semi-terrestrial fascia gluing us, together. She perhaps invites us to rejoin, to ask to see what is, and ask again what laws are.”

Quote from Dandelion Feast, a protocol to eliminate legal waste from Earth bodies

This lecture will be conducted in English.

Viktória Kaslik

Palestras PACAP 8 / MyS | Viktória Kaslik | Forum Dança

Viktória Kaslik (b. 1992) has a background in law, artistic research, and ancestral constellations. She was born and raised in the Carpathian Basin. She studied law (MA) in Budapest, and critical and conceptual design (MA) at Design Academy Eindhoven. In her work, she explores the terrain of nature-sourced laws through artistic and practice-based research, writing, artistic collaborations, and consultation. Since 2025, she has been practicing as an ancestral and systemic constellation facilitator.

Maria José Arjona (1973) is a Colombian multidisciplinary performance artist whose
work proposes through radical poetic gestures a unique form of political resistance.
At a time when political art is understood primarily as political activism, Arjona instead
treats the body as a site for subtle and complex re- articulations and questionings of
normative conditioning and violence. She moves away from a focus on the identity of
the artist to highlight the organic, expansive shared potential of the body, a body that
in its centrality may not be individual or biographical, but collective and
unconditioned.
Arjona is currently a fellow at the DAAD in Berlin and was a visiting scholar at the
department of performance studies at NYU. Her upcoming and most recent
exhibitions, seminars and talks include: “All possible forests” (Seminar) Princeton
University, “Moving with Rocks” LASA 2025, “Rivers” Biennial Of Guatemala, “Silent
but together” at The Museum Of Contemporary Art Of Barcelona, “The good life" at
The Museum Of Modern Art Of Medellin, Zero Point Berlin , Art Basel Miami Beach,
The international Biennial Of Performance (Argentina), “The Body As Archive” a (Talk)
at Museum Of Latin American Art Of Buenos Aires (MALBA).

Maria Jose Arjona

26th February 2025, from 6pm to 8pm

This online seminar draws upon “As It Is Inside, So It Is Outside”, a project exhibited at NC Arte in Bogotá (COL) in the wake of the pandemic. Emerging from a network of encounters, transformations, and visions, it reflects on the radical generosity that arises in times of crisis and the formation of temporary communities willing to embrace the unknown as a space of possibility. Spanning from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta to Bogotá, New York, and Berlin, the project reimagined interactions between non-human entities and a gathering of alchemists, biologists, dancers, sound artists, architects, oracles, anthropologists, chefs, and designers.

Building on these explorations, this seminar invites participants into a space of collective reflection and speculation, where mystery unfolds in the unspoken transmission of movement, the affective architectures emerging between bodies, the vibrational resonance of voices, and the invisible yet deeply felt shifts in molecular motion.

This lecture will be conducted in English and the invited person will be present via video-conference.

Portuguese Dance as an Appeal to the Drive for Destiny – A Psychoanalytic Reading

As part of PACAP 8/‘Mystery School’, Ezequiel Santos gives a lecture that proposes a unique approach to dance in Portugal, exploring it as a territory where myth, history and the body intertwine. Through a reading inspired by psychoanalysis, this reflection invites us to think about dance beyond its chronologies and facts, highlighting it as a space of timeless resonances and cultural fictions that manifest themselves in dancing bodies.

As this is the inaugural lecture of the ‘Mystery School’, I propose a descent below the visible plane of facts and chronologies and revisit Portuguese dance through the mythology configured in the very history that the Portuguese have lived. This is a reading inspired by psychoanalysis, which calls for the recovery of the drive for destiny, the understanding of timeless resonances, the description of a mission that has been fulfilled through the spirit, materialised in active cultural fictions that are installed in dancing bodies. Bodies that, under the appearance of the present, carry antiquity within them. | Ezequiel Santos

This lecture will be conducted in English.

Ezequiel Santos

Psychologist, psychotherapist, university lecturer in Social Sciences and Humanities, and researcher at INET-md (FMH). He has a PhD in Contemporary Art (CAUC) and has participated in research projects linking the performing arts, social sciences and digital technologies.

He completed CMD II at Forum Dança in 1992 and worked as a performer with choreographers Madalena Victorino, Rui Nunes and Francisco Camacho. Between 1996 and 2006 he was director of Forum Dança’s Choreographic Support Centre, with intense collaboration in international networks of artists and producers.

His interests span several disciplines, predominantly in the thematic areas of dance history, the phenomenology of aesthetic experience, Art Based Research and ecotopias.
