SENTE MENTE – artistic practices for well-bring and mental health in women

SenteMente aimed at developing artistic practices for women with psychological disorders living in the two neighbourhoods of the parish of Algueirão.

It used theatre to give these women a time/space for self-expression, to cultivate artistic sensitivity and to reflect on matters related to gender and belonging.

Project supported under the 1st edition of the PARTIS & Art for Change initiative, promoted by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and the ‘la Caixa’ Foundation.
