Fouad Boussouf's works sit at the meeting point of hip-hop, contemporary, and traditional practices. A teacher as much as a choreographer, he gives transmission a fundamental place. Each piece is conceived together with its accompanying set of practical workshops open to all audiences. These allow the works to be experienced differently, extending the spectator's experience and enriching it. °Up is no exception and can be adapted in many forms.

Invited by the Art Explora Foundation, the MAGMA collective unveils magmaXplora, an immersive performance where DJ sets and VJing intertwine in a journey through the marine imagination.

Christina Koza, singing in Greek, Arabic and Turkish, under the direction of master musician Kyriakos Kalaitzidis, oud and music composer, will be exploring universal traditional songs of the Mediterranean Sea. Famous violinist Zied Zouari from Tunisia will exceptionally be participating to this concert. The Mediterranean has always been a sea of encounters and exchanges. Each shore calls out to the other, constantly, inevitably, from ancient times to the present day, between East and West. It is this unique feature that will be highlighted in this concert, conceived by Kyriakos Kalaitzidis. 

Darkness is hurled with a voiceless cry, a shadow that became a weight, an indelible mark. With a hand reaching out— that holds— never letting me go, without suffocating, without hurting. A path— a step that measures time, a step that erases fear. Where the weight becomes breath, and presence becomes refuge.
