PASSING THROUGH — ‘I incorporate and share the principles of the Passing Through technique, created by David Zambrano, reinterpreting it from my artistic vision and always taking care of the temporary group that is formed for the practice.
It is a set of tools organized in different layers, from the simplest to the most complex, from the individual to the collective, which challenge and expand the space that exists within us and around us. Throughout this process of temporary compositions, we focus on developing systems that operate as a living network, a group-network in constant adaptation. Through curved and spiral trajectories that expand into macrospace, I propose flexible and complex dynamics, capable of sustaining the cohesion of the group without closing the door to unpredictability. We move continuously, transforming the environment and playing together, within a shared matrix of rules and sub-rules that each participant feeds and transforms.’
[Cristina Planas Leitão]

Cristina Planas Leitão
Cristina Planas Leitão — Curator, artistic director, and teacher, she has been developing teaching methodologies since 2010 that promote a somatic, critical, and autonomous experience of the body. She teaches internationally in artistic and academic contexts. Her pedagogical practice intersects with curating, understood as a space for new visions, accompaniment, and the construction of contexts for learning and creation.
