Corpo-Função
Laryssa Bidurin

Inspired by “Construção,” by Chico Buarque, a song marked by censorship during the military dictatorship, the idea portrays a body-machine trapped in a mechanical routine and subjected to different forms of censorship. By questioning this condition as a replaceable cog, it begins a process of emancipation in search of its own path.

1(2)3
Hugo Nascimento, Leonor Truta, Ricardo Santos

Three people orbit the same desire for union, but never at the same time. When two come closer, the third becomes excess, noise, absence. In 1(2)3, the attempt to form a collective reveals a constant imbalance: someone is always left out. A struggle emerges—subtle, physical, emotional—until the repetition of conflict forces an essential revelation: fragmentation arises from refusal, not from difference. In the end, they realize that only by existing as three is it possible to move forward.

NINHO
Afonso Pinhel, Carolina Lopes, Gabriela Teixeira, Gonçalo Pereira, Renata Soares

The brain is like a vast nest, where multiple branches intertwine and coexist. Various limbs form a fragile architecture in which every connection is essential. Failures, interruptions, and zones of silence affect the whole, turning the body into the ground where this structure materializes through a collective force based on interdependence and shared presence.
