“Little Night” by Imaginart

"Little Night" is an immersive installation playing with the night's fantastic characters, humor, and the absurd and surreal. Inside, stars travel with their bags, gentlemen with umbrellas fall from the sky, colored spots invade everything, and multitudes of cars try to dodge them. Little Night brings suggestive images that stimulate the senses, that cause children to play, that change shape and color when they are touched and when they are chased.

Miedo Come Todo... Suenos Al Vuelo

Share this event

"Miedo Come Todo... Suenos Al Vuelo" is a performance that uses the language of contemporary dance in its search for dialogue with the little ones. A bet on living and tangible relationships, on visual stimuli that make the imagination fly, a half-told story with unrecognizable characters that each kid can finish shaping.
