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. As the sounds and moving visuals unfold, the audience drifts into the ocean’s depths—among the abyss and bioluminescence, underwater eruptions and pillow lavas—until the boundaries between the living, the mineral, and the imaginary dissolve.

A dance workshop exploring plastic and its impact on living beings, for all publics Inspired by images of marine animals trapped in plastic waste, this workshop was born from underwater observations in the Mediterranean and Red Sea, where plastic proliferates even in protected areas. In duet with a light plastic sheet, participants are invited to reflect on our habits and the way we inhabit our environment.

Eart_ض is a collaborative research project developed by Zaira Oram collective (CH) & QANAT collective (MA), and taking place between Switzerland and Morocco in exchange with Palestine. The research project arose from a necessary reflection on the present time. Today, an increasing number of people have a residual relationship with the earth, because of the hectic times we live in and because of still expanding centralized urban spaces that often do not welcome nature. Our society is increasingly losing its roots, the practice of listening between human beings and between humankind and the earth is lacking. The increasing loss of the memory of rurality distances us from an ancient wisdom, which still remains the heritage of a few.

As part of the Art Explora festival and in partnership with the Shems'y National Circus School in Salé, artists Klara Fontibus, Nassim Azarzar, and Aliocha Tazi invite students to participate in the creation process of Act.1_Brise. Students from all disciplines will be able to explore the various elements used to compose flying (or fixed) structures in order to develop a choreographic and narrative performance. The research conducted during this workshop will culminate in two public outdoor performances.
