Although having a longevity that is difficult for us to comprehend, the tree carries within it much of the human condition through its strength and vulnerability.|Artist|The story of i?to begins with “i” and “o”, Fnico Feldmann and Jonathan Guichard created the number “Stick Together” at the Riu Ferrer farm in the summer of 2006.

|Arts|Athletic yet sensitive, Push is a powerful and engaging female duet, which looks at the different stances we take to understand and relate to one another. It was originally a male duet, however in Ansan, Chameleon premiers its female version of PUSH to bring in a new sensation to the piece. The piece explores the complex nature of our psychology ? how at times we push to exert dominance and control, and at other times choose to submit and step back. These familiar feelings delivered through movement will encourage the audience to understand their own emotions as well. |Artist|Today, Company Chameleon tours internationally, staging over 50 indoor and outdoor performances every year.

|Arts|“The Frame” proposes to settle down in front of the passing city life in order to observe it, think it, calculate it, designate it and share it. Four characters, trained in the disciplines of observation and arranging the space, the things and the beings, translate what happens with the help of letters that become words and words that become phrases. For some time, EVERYTHING becomes a big theatre play that never ends. A play without a plot that wants to balance on the triviality of the things that are happening holding on to a magnifiying glass. “The Frame” is a great opportunity for something. A drastic exercise. “The Frame” is an invitation to open our heart and eyes for the irrelevant, the trifle things. |Artist|Electrico28 is a collective of artists from various backgrounds from the fields of clown, physical theatre, dance, writing and street arts. They also individually carry studies of literature, linguistics, cultural studies, medicine, pedagogy and human resources in their background.

Their projects trigger the desire to play, imagine and think because, to the team, these qualities are basic human needs.|Sponsor|
