DOR: Uma Lembrança is an intermedia performance born during the isolation of the lockdown period. It offers a sensory journey through the many shades of dor—a deeply felt, often untranslatable longing echoed across cultures. Through song, sound, and visual storytelling, the work traverses themes of love, fate, memory, and nature.
As the first in a series exploring the translingual concepts of dor and saudade, this performance bridges traditional folklore music with contemporary forms of expression. It reflects on ancestral memory and emotional heritage, reimagining them through a modern, poetic lens. DOR: Uma Lembrança marks the beginning of an ongoing investigation into longing as both a personal and collective experience—where music becomes a vessel for remembrance, loss, and connection.
