Eu sou do tamanho do que vejo
I Am the Size of What I See
Media, Music, and Dance Performed for the
100-year Commemoration of World War I
Évora, Portugal, October 2018
Created and performed by Paul Godwin (USA), Miguel Noya (Venezuela) and Ameera Godwin (USA), with special guests.
Dedicated to Évora’s soldiers of the Great War, "I Am the Size of What I See" draws from various poems and fragments by Fernando Pessoa (and his heteronym, the shepherd poet, Alberto Caeiro.) The piece is an international collaboration with the community, including city leaders, arts administrators, war veterans, and other artists.
The work is rooted in the local landscape of trees, river, and sky, and follows the journey of the shepherd as he becomes a soldier facing his own mortality. Dance and theatre elements will culminate with the reading of the names of local soldiers lost in the battles of World War I, one hundred years ago.
Paul Godwin (USA) & Miguel Noya (Venezuela), also known as DOGON, have been composing, recording, and performing electro-acoustic music since 1981. Continuing their trans-national collaboration of over 35 years, Godwin & Noya combine electro-acoustic music with voice and choir in surround sound. Multi-media artist, Ameera (A.E. Godwin), combines visual projections and performance.
