SUMMARY
The workshop aims to relate the artistic experiences of the first men with the experiences we have – or we can have – every day. Drawing, singing and playing are traits that have always accompanied our species. Through the various sessions we will discover that we are similar to our ancestors and we will try to investigate the reasons why knowing our past can help us face future challenges with more awareness.
