Baldio is a research and performative creation project that combines composition with literature, philosophy and the social movement of ‘transition communities’. The project invites the public and creators to cohabit in a shared space-time of action and imagination, simultaneously performative, experimental, and symbolic. To this end, it uses the Teatro do Frio project archive – especially those that promote direct contact with public space – intertwining the domains of artistic creation with those of social participation. This new creation takes on the public space a laboratory of contemporaneity. Affirming imagination as a fundamental factor for survival, this creation proposes to speculate and activate the collaborative ingenuity of alternatives for the life we have and want to have in common.
