Water Landscapes, Xesca Salvà

Workshop
All audiences

A speculative game based on direct observation of the entire ecosystem that exists within water. What lives in the sea? What landscapes does it create? How many different creatures live in the water? What are they like and how do they move? We will draw the landscape of living beings that cannot be seen with the naked eye, a garden of microorganisms, a new science-fiction planet

All dates

The children enter the space and observe a simple fish tank filled with water, imagining what might be inside and how it moves. Then we observe a drop of water under the microscope and look for moving beings in other microscope videos, which inspire us to draw our own garden on a transparent sheet, like the water we observed at the beginning.
