MEG STUART - SULPHUR EDGES
13 MAY 2026
WED 19:00 Culturgest Moderation: Liliana Coutinho
Sulphur Edges is a choreographic encounter shaped with and through place. Created during Forum Dança’s PACAP 8 / Mystery School residency, the 60-minute film unfolds across São Miguel’s thermal sites, oceanfront pools, traces of a mine, and the shell of an abandoned hotel. These places act as co-agents in a process of sensing and transmission. Guided by Meg Stuart’s direction, the performers respond to the elemental conditions of each site. Movement arises from relation — to temperature, texture, invisible forces, and to one another. The camera moves as a choreographic partner, tracing tensions between body, place, and atmosphere. Before the film screening, a conversation with Meg Stuart, about project Mystery School will explore modes of presence, transmission, and artistic practice that resonate through the work.
