Raquel André / "We are all lovers, collectors, artists and spectators"
[🎥 ETC Panel "European Formats of #ParticipatoryTheatre"]
Raquel André, Artist at Teatro Nacional D. Maria II (Lisbon, Portugal) presented her "Collection of People", a work with 4 Collections: Lovers, Collectors, Artists and Spectators. Raquel André started her artistic path as far as she remembers. One day she took a box full of handwritten letters, a correspondence from a family in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, and from then she made her first performance in 2009. Since then she started having an interest in collecting, especially in the idea of how to collect in the performing arts, about which she wrote a master thesis at University Federal of Rio de Janeiro (2016). She started the Collection of People in 2014.
