By touching the object, they awaken sounds of the past and episodes, fragments of the life of great figures in the struggle for civil rights in the United States.
Thanks to the interactivity game unfolds a moment between play, dance, singing, memories of an era, a course of combat and its current resonances.
You are invited in a moment of living memory to discover sound worlds evocative of different moments of history, the words and words, gestures and acts of activist Rosa Parks and her contemporaries.
The Le Makila company has been developing artistic work for several years to listen to the memories of great female figures: most often artists, but still thinkers, activists, both witnesses and builders of their time: Isadora Duncan, Camille Claudel, Frida Kahlo, Calamity Jane, Cesaria Evora, Maria Callas, Billie Holiday, Marlène Dietrich, Coccinelle, Joséphine Baker, Nikki de Saint Phalle, Rosa Parks etc...
An approach to the lives of illustrious women, which is intended to be in harmony with our lives from here and now, whatever our conditions, gender, age, social, cultural, religious origin. Memory and history belong to all human beings. Cultivating these inheritances to the feminine, through our artistic proposals, is our contribution to the Matrimone.
