MOONGATE

Oleiros, Portugal - July, 2025

During the Cortiçada Art Fest, we created a site-specific dance performance dedicated to the Moongate artwork at the Museu Experimenta Paisagem. Rooted in the surrounding nature, the piece invited both performers and audience into an immersive journey where the boundaries between human and environment dissolve. Staged within the river itself, the choreography unfolded as a passage through the imagined lives of the creatures inhabiting its waters—fluid, intimate, and in constant dialogue with the elements.
