A Leste
A Leste is a space and a time for discussion, transdisciplinary experimentation, and critical thinking, where different forms of experience and knowledge converge, and where individual and collective creation coexist. It seeks to reflect on different ways of being and living together, fostering a sense of community based on the recognition of each one’s singularities. A Leste aspires to be a space of hospitality and connection, where different constellations of affinities can co-emerge, forming a network grounded in the ideas of radical empathy, care, and affection. It is a place for sharing aspirations, desires, and concerns that shape artistic practices, for discussing poetic and political possibilities and impossibilities, recharging imagination, and directing attention toward transformative actions in the world around us.
