O Estado do Tempo is an initiative organized by O Espaço do Tempo that began in 2024 and comprises a series of talks and the publishing of a collection of zines on various topics of our time. In each talk, there will be a general theme that will be discussed by the people invited, as well as the participation of the present audience. Each of these talks, which will happen in different locations in Montemor-o-Novo, will result in a publication that will bring together photographic records, transcriptions, texts, and original graphic creations.

The next talk of O Estado do Tempo will be on September 12, around 4pm, at Cineteatro Curvo Semedo, where we will discuss the theme O tempo perguntou ao tempo quanto tempo o tempo tem. O tempo respondeu ao tempo que o tempo tem tanto tempo quanto tempo o tempo tem. (Time asked time how much time time had. Time replied that time had as much time as time had). 

The guests for this talk will be Inês Barbosa, Pedro Barreiro e Rodrigo Pedreira, who are also co-curators of the project.

Inês Barbosa holds a Ph.D. in Sociology of Education (UM, 2016) and a postgraduate degree in Performance (FBAUP, 2017). She has combined sociological research with artistic practice and socio-educational intervention. Her research focuses on protest movements for housing rights, using visual ethnography and participatory methodologies. Within this theme, she has worked with Theatre of the Oppressed, founded the photographic archive project (A)Briga, and organized exhibitions and film series at the Galeria Geraldes da Silva (2021), CCOP (2021), and the Portuguese Center of Photography (2022).

Pedro Barreiro is an artist who has developed several works as a director, performer, scenic maker, dramaturg, producer, programmer, and curator. He has been interested, in recent years and among other things, in thinking about performative acts as poetic generators, in experimenting with the conventions of theatrical forms, and in strategies for dismantling hegemonic systems in contemporary art. Since 2020, he has been continuously creating and presenting the performance titled an artist is always working (www.alwaysworking.art). He was the artistic director of Teatro Sá da Bandeira, in Santarém (2015-2017), and collaborated with Teatro Praga as programmer of Rua das Gaivotas 6 (2019-2022). He is an associated artist of Cão Solteiro, since 2020. He is also a founding member of the collectives Sr. João (2010), and Activo Tóxico (2017). Currently, he is the artistic director of O Espaço do Tempo.

Rodrigo Pedreira develops an intermodal artistic practice, crossing sound, video, and audiovisual technologies in relation to space and time. He holds a degree in Theatre (ESTC) and a master’s in Art and Sound Technologies (ESMAE), working in areas such as live cinema, sound art, and audiovisual performance. He is the founder of the association Ocupação, has collaborated with various artists and theatre and music institutions, and has carried out multimedia and sound sculpture projects presented in Portugal. In 2024, he designed the audiovisual component of A Participação das Pedras, a project by Pedro Fazenda, presented at Culturgest.
