Foto possibly by ultravioleta.

SCHEDULE:

  • 8:00pm-9:30pm: Doors Open + Pika-Pika

  • 9:30pm-10:00pm: Poetry Recital with YÃO k (we will begin on time!)

  • 10:00pm-11:00pm: FIREWORKS!

Recital Description:

This story of four oral poems in Castellano and one body poem crosses the experiences of love from different personal perspectives, in my case from these 5:

- Reciprocal love
- Distant love
- Physical love
- Confused love
- Self-love

On this journey, I want to show you how I feel through words, the convergences and experiences I share with the people around me and those I meet along the way. If these stories resonate with you, then they’re probably meant for you.

Personal Description:

Call me YÃO k
And that's where we'll begin

From Lisbon, where my mother gave me life not once, but twice in the hospital bathroom when I couldn’t even breathe

Raised in Logroño, where I found inspirations that allowed me to breathe while diving in the Ebro

I let myself be moved by many places, and few stayed as deeply within me as poetry. There were alleyways like color, light, and makeup that are very much a part of my neighborhood and Will never disappear, no matter how far I go

These places that inhabit and fill me
Are the places I want to take you to
