RELATIONAL & PHYSICAL THEATER RESIDENCY
The workshop at the festival
At Fera Festival, theater takes on the role of a common thread: those who choose to participate in the theater sessions will be part of an experience aimed at presenting to the public what emerges from all the activities offered during the two weeks of August.
Those who follow multiple workshops, in addition to the theater one, will be carriers of the work done: the participants in the theater group will re-elaborate the information to present it in a dramaturgical form.
Participation in the theater sessions can be partial, by enrolling for just one morning or afternoon, or only for the first or second week. For this reason, two final feedback performances are scheduled:

Saturday, August 9th, at the end of the first week.
Saturday, August 16th, at the end of the second week.
Those who participate in both weeks will take part in a continuously growing and evolving work.
Fera brings a welcoming theatrical pedagogy that is close to people; the core remains the human being in their peculiarities (each one unique) and within the group, a privileged place for learning and training.
Fera offers community theater experiences, so the purely theatrical work, in addition to contemplating the movement of the body and voice in space, observes and orients itself toward creating an exchange, first among the participants and then with the public.
Theatrical action is a tangible action; it expresses itself by raising questions and hypotheses, and it is capable of communicating through images and words, promoting culture and change.

INVERSE FREE PAINTING
Free painting of inner landscapes and soul
Free painting of inner landscapes and soul
The workshop's full intention is to turn our eyes to our own internal, harmonious nature. It is "inverse" because it turns inward to "make soul" and to express oneself in PHYSIOLOGICAL and EMOTIONAL freedom through painting.
Through colors, free painting, and the choice of natural elements from ancient manuals—botany, natural sciences, flowers, biology, microbiology, fungi, animals—we will follow our own aptitude and memory through primordial forms of the plant, animal, and human worlds.
A "convivial workshop" like a solemn banquet between botany and matter, celebrating the coexistence of two worlds: the human on one side and the organic on the other, thus highlighting the exchange between body and nature through the free painting of oneself.
WHICH LEAF ARE YOU? WHICH FLOWER ARE YOU? WHICH ANIMAL ARE YOU? WHICH TREE ARE YOU? WHICH ORGAN ARE YOU?
To grasp the universe of time's web, inducing the imagination to enter a new poetics, to look at a fertile landscape to generate new languages and habitats by traversing one's own emotions.

CONVIVIUM OF THOUGHTFUL LANDSCAPES
Thoughts through hanging cloths
A relational workshop of new perspectives and thoughts on the landscape.
The journey will lead to the creation of cotton cloths, linen, and banners as MANTRAS of freedom and feelings for the grand landscape.
THOUGHTFUL HANGING CLOTHS that have the will to love and be loved by the landscape, to impress one's thoughts to be dedicated to the mountains, trees, flowers, minerals, and inner landscapes, to the soul.
TO BRING FREEDOM
Participants will then have fabrics and typographic stamps to impress thoughts dedicated to the grand landscapes.
We will then proceed to write each thought on fabric and tie them to one another with threads and large stitches of suture and union.
Acrylics, inks to impress one's thought to be dedicated to the mountains, trees, flowers, minerals, and inner landscapes.
Materials needed: fabrics, brushes, acrylics, tempera, watercolors, typographic stamps, inks, threads, wool needles, hands.

VALENTINA VOLONTE'
FREE VOICE PRACTICES
AROUND ORAL TRADITION SINGING AND CIRCLESINGING
I have been working with spontaneous singing and oral/aural tradition for 20 years. In these repertoires and practices, I seek the inclusive aspect of music and the innate musicality in each of us. I reconnect with the urgency of communicating by making music with what is there: the voice, the body, the ear. Oral and aural transmission and the relationship between orality and writing.
I encountered circlesinging and then collaborative vocal improvisation by chance and immediately found many affinities. I find pleasure in music that carries no words and in the liberating aspect of individual expression within the collective: singing together in multiple parts confronts us with the problems and resources of collective action.
My research as a facilitator now develops on the interaction between these two singing practices and traditions.

The workshop at the festival
To experiment with voice and movement through the suggestions of a facilitator. Then, to gather in a circle to sing.
Circlesinging reconnects us to an ancestral practice of singing. We sing assigned parts in a circle: short invented melodies or rhythmic parts, without language, other than the one we invent! Completely improvised music that is created collectively! In the circle, a temporary musical community is created, where we experience empathy, mutual listening, solidarity, and cooperation. Good ingredients to bring into everyday life too!
Oral tradition singing comes into practice when the word bursts forth, the need to narrate, to transmit a story that is History, that is the human condition, made of archaic elements and situated experiences. Struggle, work, celebration, love, travel, peasant rituals…
We will taste a bit of this world, playing, having fun, and mastering the judgment of ourselves.

LARA CENTAMORI
CREATIVE WRITING WORKSHOP
Lara was born on a sunny August morning, in a small mountain town, into a family that included a mom and a dad, thoughtful words, and many hugs.
She put on her first cross-country skis at age four (she's that little pipsqueak yelling, "Action!" before every descent), and she liked it so much that she ended up competing in the Italian Cup.
She learns at the linguistic high school, where her Italian teacher (a disheveled mane of hair and a flutter of a colorful skirt) makes her fall in love with the worlds that can be built with words. And in those five years of disjointed growth, the theater workshop is her centering space, as well as a guarantee of big laughs.
She was raised by the Scuola Holden, where she practices writing and the art of wonder; and in the meantime, she has inhabited dance-writing and nature writing courses, and has tried to tell what she learned to some high school classes.
Currently, she no longer uses skis, but runs and climbs to practice freedom; she continues to inhabit the Scuola Holden as an apprentice of Intensity; she studies at the University of Turin; she writes, and all the rest.

The workshop at the festival
Writing is transporting a piece of intensity from one point to another on the map of humans. In this workshop, we will try to understand how to bring this piece into the world. We must not squeeze it too tightly, or it will stop vibrating; but we must grasp it well, or it will run away. We will try to do this by sitting in a circle and telling each other stories; and then by writing those stories on the page.
No previous experience is required.

MARCO SUGLIANO
TREASURE HUNT
(THAT IS INSIDE YOU)
My name is Marco Sugliano, I have a degree in Psychological Sciences and Techniques of Development and Education. For many years, I worked as an educator in disadvantaged contexts and in youth centers. Recently, I chose to create a project that could unite the skills I have acquired over the years with my passions, namely nature walks and research in the field of inner development and evolution. The project is called Muovidentro, and its purpose is to create a space for self-observation and understanding. Through walks in natural contexts and specific techniques such as guided meditations, creative writing exercises, and self-observation techniques, you can add another small piece to what is self-knowledge, also called Consciousness.

The workshop at the festival
The activity consists of a group walk in which participants will have to follow a map and complete trials and activities they encounter along the way by following various clues. The trials and activities will stimulate participants to personal reflections aimed at bringing out new questions about themselves.
The group (if it is very large, it will be divided into smaller groups) will be provided with the following sheets:

The workshop at the festival
"Each of us is poetry."
Starting from this assumption, a journey is proposed in which participants, after sharing theoretical notions and listening to examples, will try to become performers, interpreting poems and poetic prose, written on the spot or already prepared. We are in the realm of poetry slam and spoken word, where poetic, theatrical, and musical registers combine.
