Affections is the name of the performance that emerged from the 2023 edition of Moving!, a project for creativity and welcoming through dance, directed by the choreographer María Ferrer, with the young people of the Pla d’Acollida de Poble-Sec per a Tothom.

 

Affections is a creation that transfers to the body some social reflections evoked in the exhibition What Humanity?, from the corporality of young people fighting their own inner and social wars, and of belonging. The piece will be presented in exhibition format, a decentralized performance all around the museum’s Oval Hall, where the young people will surprise and guide visitors through it.
