O presente relatório tem como objectivo analisar a realidade de uma Companhia de Marionetas em Portugal, Teatro e Marionetas de Mandrágora, incidindo sobre a relação entre o actor, marioneta e meio envolvente (site specific) no contexto de uma prática teatral concreta, a produção do espectáculo Era uma vez ...As Sete Casas da Infortuna, no Castelo de Santa Maria da Feira. Os resultados apurados acompanham os moldes em que se procurou passar de um actor convencional para a especialização de um micromundo teatral onde a aprendizagem foi, fulcral desde o processo de construção até, à manipulação em cena num universo de trabalho particularmente árduo e específico. A minha trajectória no seio da companhia começou pela familiarização e aprendizagem informal da prática das marionetas através da observação directa dos espectáculos e de diferentes projectos da companhia. A formação feita no local de estágio (atelier da Companhia) foi outra das modalidades de formação que acompanhou o meu trajecto ao longo do estágio através da minha colaboração em projectos como Teatro nas Instituições, sempre sob a égide da divisão de tarefas e de alguma autoaprendizagem com a devida supervisão e orientação de artistas especialistas, como o Director Criativo, enVide neFelibata. O laboratório de aprendizagem prosseguiu pela mão da marionetista Clara Ribeiro que orientou a minha formação no sentido de absorver princípios teórico-práticos como o Foco, o Movimento e o Olhar para uma melhor consciencialização do universo do teatro de marionetas e formas animadas. Ainda nessa aprendizagem, a figura de alguns artistas especialistas foi fulcral, nomeadamente a da cenógrafa Marta Fernandes da Silva, que revelou ser de extrema importância ao longo do estágio pois permitiu uma verdadeira intersecção entre as componentes teórica e prática. Dessa forma pude acompanhar todo o processo de criação do Era uma vez ...As Sete Casas da Infortuna, e colaborar na construção das marionetas que iria manipular como actor - marionetista. Relativamente à questão da componente da interpretação no estágio, esta foi assumida pela encenadora - marionetista, Filipa Alexandre que, com a sua orientação, permitiu um enfoque do grupo de trabalho num processo de criação colectiva. Assim, a nível pessoal, fui movido por uma necessidade premente de descodificar o papel do actor na sua relação com a marioneta e o meio envolvente (site specific). ABSTRACT: This study aims to examine the reality of a Puppet Company in Portugal, the Puppet Theater of Mandrágora, focusing on the relationship between actor, puppet and environment (site specific) in the context of an actual theatrical practice, Once upon a time ...Seven houses of infortune, in the Castle of Santa Maria da Feira. The results obtained follow the way in which one seeks to move from one "conventional" actor to the specialization of a micro theater where learning was central from the building process to manipulation on the scene in a universe of work particularly hard and specific. My initial course within the company began with the familiarization and informal learning of the practice of puppetry through direct observation of performances and various projects of the company. The training done at the company (workshop of the Company) was one of the training arrangements that accompanied my way along the training through assistance on projects such as Teatro nas Instituições, always under the auspices of the division of tasks and due self-teaching with appropriate supervision and guidance of expert artists, such as the Creative Director, enVide neFelibata. The learning laboratory continued by the hand of the puppeteer Clara Ribeiro who supervised my training in order to absorb theoretical and practical principles as the Focus, the Movement and the Look for better awareness of the world of puppetry and animated forms. Also at this level, the figure of some specialist artists were central, such as the scenographer Marta Fernandes da Silva, who proved to be extremely important during this training, allowing a true intersection between the theoretical and the practical components. I could experience the surroundings of the creation notebook of Era uma vez ...As Sete Casas da Infortuna, and collaborate in the preparation of puppets that would handle as an actor - puppeteer. As to the question of the interpretation component on training, this was in charge of stage director - puppeteer, and the Artistic Director, Filipa Alexandre, whose instructions allowed a focus of the working group in a process of collective creation. Accordingly, to a personal level, I was urged to decode the role of the actor in relation to the puppet and the environment (site specific).

Cork, as a natural product provided by the bark of the cork oak tree, is an important staple of the Portuguese economy and important to Portuguese culture. It is a sustainable product with a positive ecological footprint, from harvesting to industrial production, with the advantage of creating a local economic model through regional labour activity and distribution. Within the balance between nature-human-economy to create a sustainable system, cork production in Portugal represents a human and social dimension. By focusing on that dimension and by creating an awareness of the cultural and social impact of the activity and by re-appraising the meaning of the material within the culture, the study reframes a consideration of the actual place of labour and production. The human, geophysical, historical, social, economic, ecological and cultural aspects of the place are observed as regards their relation to work or labour in that physical space. A pilot study is being developed in the village of Azaruja in the district of Évora, Portugal. In this small locality, cork is very important in terms of the relationships between the physical subsistence of their residents and the local natural resources, because it structures the place in its cultural, social and economical dimensions. This paper outlines the theoretical foundations, the process and the outcomes of the participatory ecodesign project titled Creative Practices Around the Production of Cork which was initiated by a Portuguese artist/design researcher and developed further through the collaboration with the other two authors, one a Portuguese visual artist/researcher and the other a Turkish fashion designer/theorist. The investigation focuses on questions that expand the notion of place for artists and designers, filtered through the lenses of manual labourers in order to understand their physical, social, cultural and economic relationship with the environment. To create the process of interaction with the place and the people, a creative collaborative dynamic is developed between the authors with their range of artistic sensibilities and the local population. To adopt a holistic notion of sustainability and cultural identity a process of investigation is designated to: (1) analyse, test and interpret - through the dissemination of life stories, visual representation of the place and the creation of cork objects - the importance of culture related to the labour activity of a local natural resource that determines and structures the region; (2) to give public recognition to those involved, taking into account their sense of belonging to the place and in order to show the value of their sustainable labour activities related to local natural resources; (3) to contribute to the knowledge of the place and to its dynamism through an aesthetic approach to labour activities. With reference to fields of knowledge such as anthropology, the social arts and sustainable design, a practice-based research is conducted with collaborative and participatory design methods to create an open model of interaction which involves local people in the realization of the project. Outcomes of this research will be presented in the paper as a survey analysis with theoretical conclusions.
