Workshops
On Thursday mornings, the caretakers and caregivers of autistic and psychotic young people and adults participating in the Circulando Project, pass through the gardens of the Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro - UNIRIO, towards the Project Theater Workshops.
Arts Studio
The methodology is based on the playful use of recycled objects, musical awareness, body perception, dance, visual arts, theater games and games, which act as mediators in communication with autistic and psychotic people. And they reverberate in the creation of microcenas, performances, storytelling and moments of instant improvisations, seeking to develop the cognitive, expressive, affective and social aspects of the students involved (autistic, psychotic, clinicians and students in Performing Arts and Music).
Responsible and Caregivers Group
As a direction of work, a group was articulated to take care of those responsible and caregivers during the time of the autistic workshop, participants in a group formed for and by mothers, a father and a caregiver. Ateliers, through the development of bodily perception, games, exercises and theatrical games, also strolling through other artistic languages, such as music and plastic arts, initially seek to raise awareness, increase self-esteem and expand expressiveness. But, in addition to these purposes, the Circulando Project Theater Workshops have as their main objective, to make these people manage to perceive themselves as subjects, as men and women, in addition to their so particular relationship of fathers, mothers and relatives of these young people and adults with mental disorders. Within the Circulando Project, activities aimed at responsible caregivers are also of fundamental importance for the purposes of treating autistic and psychotic entities. ”
