‘The Power of Water’

In this workshop, theater maker Dorothy Blokland will share some photos taken by children from Suriname capturing climate change in a sensory way. Blokland guides you through theater and writing exercises, to create meaningful texts that reflect each photo. This workshop is part of 'The Power of Water', a project that investigates the relationship between climate change and the trans-Atlantic route.
