Sign Language Rap Workshop
The Inclús Festival presents a collaborative artistic workshop exploring the possibilities of rap and sign language as forms of expression, communication, and creation, encouraging self-discovery through creative writing and artistic expression.
Over two afternoons, participants, guided by NEVE, will work together to create a rap piece in sign language. Through writing, rhythm, movement, and body expression, they will experiment with the visual and musical possibilities of this art form and discover new ways to convey emotions and develop a shared artistic voice.
The workshop aims to create a meeting space for Deaf and hearing participants, where sign language is not only a tool for accessibility but also a language for musical creation, giving shape and presence to what participants wish to communicate.
No previous experience in rap or knowledge of sign language is required to participate.
The resulting piece will be presented at a special festival event, alongside a screening of the documentary The Way We Move and a concert. This will be an opportunity for participants to share the results of their creative process with the audience.
Accessibility features:
Planned accessibility services include Catalan Sign Language (LSC) interpretation, accessible subtitles for Deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences, and audio description. Specific accessibility arrangements for the concert are yet to be confirmed.
