WHAT iS FLOU?
FLOU! is an interactive performance thought for children between 4 and 10 years old. Sitting around a great blank paper sheet, the children will watch and take part in a drawing processes of a big picture. The rough dancing traces are inked freely by the performer and the forms are progressively appearing in a symbiotic conversation, so then, “some drawings later”, other drawings, cut from previous performances will arise to the set. These cuts (pieces, drawings, forms) take over the big picture-set by the hands of the children who will play and draw putting together new forms and pictures, delivering a new meaning to the event. At the same time, the draw, resulted from the actual process will be cut and detached by the performer, making new pictures that will be added to this sort of game and which will be added to the project`s heap and used by the participants of the next events. A collective experience of the interactive kind, not closed to any specific signification, and which puts forward the proposition of playing “seriously” – as every child does.

FLOU! EXPERIENCE
FLOU! is a study project about the gesture, the trace and the movement generated in the act of drawing, which may be free or led by lines, traces and splotches. A live creative process where the ink and the apparently shapeless forms will progressively conduct the drawing. It is based on the concepts of the free drawing (the movement and the act of scribble) and the use of the black and the three primary colors (yellow, red and blue). An acting not aimed to attain a formal and esthetic result but to a deep immersion in the intense conversation with the material. Is an interactive game, a shapeless puzzle where every composition alludes the imaginary of every single artist – yes! we are all artists.
