Sun Day

Puppetry · Animated Forms

EscolaNova becomes a living space of celebration and encounter on this Sun Day. This time, the essence of the community festival condenses into a unique moment of sharing with the presentation of Jacarandá, a puppetry and animated forms performance that invites us to embark on a journey into the depths of nature.

After the performance, we stayed to talk about what we saw and felt, accompanied by tea and homemade cakes. A more intimate afternoon, warming us inside and under the sun, in perfect tune with the beginning of autumn.

Puppetry · Animated Forms
Jacarandá
by Adriana Melo and Magnum Soares

Sap is the blood of plants, a vital liquid running through the veins of nature, carrying water and nutrients across bodies of different sizes, thicknesses, colours, and origins. It is sap that drives the growth of trees. We know they are an essential source of oxygen production worldwide, but what we still do not know about them remains vast.

Jacarandá dives into this unknown, where infinity unfolds. It is a puppetry and animated forms performance exploring nature's hidden, mysterious universe. It reveals the colours, rhythms, and botanical mastery that host many beings. What we still don't know may be the most fascinating.

An intimate solo by dancer and puppeteer Magnum Soares, without words, invites the audience on a journey into the depths of nature.
