A Meeting with Carlos Noronha Feio

Date

Schedule

14:30–16:00

Place

Garage Auditorium

DESCRIPTION

Carlos Noronha Feio is an artist concerned with history and origin of currencies. He will present a short talk about images and symbols present in currencies from around the world.

It is important for the artist to tell that currency is not only an instrument to make a deal, but also a data storage. Currency can be a medium expressing interests and even feelings.

This mini talk will be followed by the children being invited to produce their own personal “currencies of affect” applicable for intangible values exchange, namely feelings, emotions, impressions. They can exchange currencies with other children in the workshop, or use it at their own discretion.
