Emoções/Emozioni

A Mundzuku Ka Hina, words and images. Communication Laboratory. Maputo, Mozambique.

November 2015.
Maputo, Bairro of Hulene B. A human and social environment extreme and particularly. In the middle, the man. His feelings, his emotions, his skills and ability to communicate.

This year, we began our educational and artistic path starting with emotions, the more intimate and intense ones embedded in our feelings and often hidden in the recesses of our soul; the ones that are sometimes indecipherable for the way in which they display themselves. The comparison between our feelings, our emotions and the harsh daily contingencies: our personal, professional and artistic evolution paths.

Three weeks of work were spent focusing on our feelings through introspection, meditation, and sharing. We worked on our senses, sensitivity and emotional intelligence but also on our limitations, blocks and our life stories.

In a subsequent phase, we translated those emotions into three images in words, a poem that in three verses could summarize convey the depth of the relived emotion. Than we translated them in stories, sounds, colors and body movements. At the end of the process we translated our emotions into photographic images, availing ourselves of those technical, formal and stylistic procedures and approaches capable of powerfully and effectively communicating our feelings.
