PROTOVOULIA | RAFAEL ABDALA + JESSICA GOES

Rafael Abdala + Jessica Goes | «Protovoulia» – the work

Rafael Abdala + Jessica Goes will present to us the work “Protovoulia”: “Protovoulia” is a call to action. Inviting the “self” to become as many as we are. An adventure through the otherness in a multitudinal order. Living is a constant collectivization, in which we multiply and share. The primary motivation of an active being in our society should be donation of his/her work and his/her body as a tool for creativity. Through art (specially performance art) we’ll organize our bodies next to other ones, in order to promote the transcendence of the individual body, the certainties of individual order, leading to the sharing of this empowerment or even the spreading of multiple (un)certainties among us. Flowing ideas and different perceptions with multiauthorial thinking. Exploring the exercise and constitution of our alterity (otherness), rather than the self-absorbed constitution of our identity. Proposing actions, bodily gestures, attitudes, which are potent and liberating, no matter how ephemeral and evanescent in its materiality, the main project is an exercise of empathy with OUR-selves.
