This workshop by Piny, organised in partnership with the association Geração com Futuro (Generation with Future), wanted to give the body time to exist and to move for the pleasure of moving. Bringing the back to the front, opening the eyes and being able to speak. To open space to stop the time of daily tasks, the weight of responsibilities and to be able to exist through movement and dance. A space for the women of Quinta do Lavrado.
