Catalonia
Tinta Negra brings together black performers and theater makers to create new stories rooted in creative autonomy and Afro-centered perspectives. The collective, founded by Denise Duncan, recaptures dignified performance spaces with works such as Títuba, bruixa, negra i ramera and #nosomunhashtag, and runs Periferia Cimarronas, an Afro-centered theater in Barcelona.

Denise Duncan, a Costa Rican-Catalan writer and director, connects artistic creation with activism in her work. With more than 20 premieres and numerous awards, she builds bridges between theater, feminism and decolonial thinking.

Monte Isla(Adrià Girona, Andrea Pellejero, Rut Girona) develops a practice around landscape and scenic time, exploring the non-human on stage. They are the founders of Això al poble no li agradarà, a festival that decentralizes the performing arts in the region of Girona.

Andrea Pellejero and Adrià Girona, both trained at the Institut del Teatre, move between theater, objects and sound, with works such as Un cuerpo sin talento (Grec Festival 2024).

Balearic Islands
Es Clot d’En Font is an artistic and ecological haven in Majorca, where art, nature and well-being come together. The place offers residencies, workshops and retreats that encourage creativity and connection to the land.

Kristin Rogghe, a Brussels-based dramaturg and artist, interweaves performing arts with dream work in her “dream dramaturgy.” From her base in Mallorca, she explores regeneration and intuitive co-creation through collaborative, transdisciplinary practice.
