MARTA PEREIRA. 1993, Oporto

 

I finished in 2011 the Artistic Production course in Escola Secundária Artística Soares dos Reis, specializing in Plastic Spectacle Realization. In July 2014 I graduated in Scenography at Escola Superior de Música, Artes e Espectáculo, and am currently a member of the 10th promotion, 2014-2017 of the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts de la Marionnette em Charleville-Mézières

By the Erasmus mobility programme, between September 2012 and July 2013, I studied scenography at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. In May 2014, in an intensive programme, I was part of the project Interdisciplinary Involvement and Community Spaces in Izmir, Turkey.

Still in scenography, I did an internship in the 2013 edition of the Festival des Arts de la Marionnette de Mirepoix (led by Charlotte Humbert) and at the Conservatoire National Superieur d’Art Dramatique de Paris, betewwn November 2012 and April 2013 (led by Raymond Sarti), being on the scenography team of the show La ballade du coeur brisé d’Orphée (directed by Caroline Marcadé)

In the field of puppet theatre, I did and internship at Companhia de Teatro de Marionetas Mandrágora, between January and May 2011 (led by EnVide Nefelibata), designing and constructing the puppets of the show Mãos de Sal (directed by Clara Ribeiro).

In the production field, I followed the Festival Mondial des Théâtres de Marionnettes in Charleville-Mézières between August and October 2013 (being in charge of the Off Rue), as well as the 2012 edition of the Festival Internacional de Marionetas do Porto – the same festival where in 2013 I was part of the coordinating team for the workshop FIMPALITOS.

In 2012 I joined Teatro Universitário do Porto with their acting course, Since then, there I: designed and built, with Joana Mont’ Alverne, the scenography for the show Teatro Universitário no Porto (directed by Cláudio da Silva) in June 2012; performed in the show Já Gastámos as Palavras (directed by Victor Hugo Pontes) in 2013/2014; still in 2014, I designed and built, with Orlando Gilberto-Castro and Tiago Ascensão, the scenography for the show O Despertar da Primavera (directed by Nuno Matos).

Between August and September 2011 I participated in the Artistic Residency De Passagem | Pass by the day led by Iris Julian, which resulted in a performance with the same name, as part of 2011 edition of Festival Manobras, in Oporto, and short film, also with the same name, directed by Nuno Escudeiro.

Since a young age I try to gather education in the fields of dance, music and theater, attending alongside with my academic path schools like Balleteatro, O Bando dos Gambozinos and Escola de Música Pedro Freches, as well as specialization in the field of puppet theatre, having so far education in manipulation and construction with: A Tarumba, Companhia de Teatro de Marionetas Mandrágora, Marcelo Lafontana, Stephen Mottram e Patrick Murys.
