During the residency, through various games, conversations and activities, the artists tried to find ways to meet, communicate and share their experiences with people who speak many different languages.
\nAfter a month and a half of intensive classes and meetings, the theme of the act of welcoming people came to the core. How and why do we welcome each other in our homes, cities, countries? What are the concerns or expectations in doing so?<\/p>\n
