The author - Adrián Dozetas describes Written Portraits as follows: “you and me sit in front of each other I observe and I write a poem about you and you get the poem in a paper as a present while artists of different disciplines like music, dance or painting, create the proper ambiance and also portrays you. The poems can be written in Spanish, English, German, and French”.

.This participative performance is based on live improvisational poems by artists of diverse disciplines that not only drive the moment and the words into an experience of trance and human interconnection but also tend to portray the person in their own language.

This Written Portraits session took place at the New European Bauhaus Festival in Brussels. We wrote, danced, and played more than 30 portraits in two days.
