Sofía Barroso
Drawing nature
–
EUSA, Campus de la Cámara de Comercio de Sevilla (C/ Isabela, 1)
Gardens are an exuberant artistic exercise in which landscape designers allow themselves to draw nature. Over the last 20 years, landscaping has received a notable boost in Spain, especially in Andalusia. Many of these gardens have become a source of inspiration and, as a result, a cause of interest for many people eager to visit them and enjoy a multisensory experience between humans and their environment.
Sofía Barroso has become an expert in promoting these landscapes thanks to her company Around Art, through which she organises personalised trips to historic and newly created gardens. At this event, she will talk about her experiences in Andalusian gardens and many of their hidden secrets, experiences that elevate the concept of tourism and link it to culture and nature.
The event will be presented by Javier Fernández, Director General of the University Campus of the Seville Chamber of Commerce (EUSA).

The minds of young people are like sponges, ready to absorb positive stimuli even in the most adverse social conditions. Anything is possible when culture acts as a driver of social progress. Magician Luigi Ludus will perform his show El mago de los libros ('The Book Magician') before a large audience of students from the most vulnerable areas of the city. The aim is to bring a passion for books to young children in a fun and entertaining way, thus turning books and reading comprehension into fundamental tools for the educational development of these minors and opening doors to a fairer future with more opportunities.

Intramuros magazine is a pioneer in Spanish in the writing of the self. About to celebrate its first 30 years of uninterrupted activity and with the largest collection of minimal autobiographies —more than 600 texts written especially for the magazine— by great figures of literature, including three Nobel Prize winners —Herta Müller, Günter Grass and Mo Yan. Intramuros aims to build a network to preserve the heritage of the linguistic community of those who write and feel in Spanish.
Beltrán Gambier, its director, will lead a workshop in which he will guide participants in writing about their lives. In the first part (30 minutes), Gambier will provide some theoretical guidelines and read excerpts from short autobiographies with the aim of motivating participants—who do not need any academic training—to write (in the next 30 minutes) three or four opening paragraphs, which will be read and discussed (in the last 30 minutes) among the participants.

According to the popular saying, ‘the best camera in the world is the one you carry with you.’ In this practical workshop for twenty young people, taught by Lisbeth Salas(Venezuela), participants learn how to use only their smartphones to turn their casual snapshots into personal images that could be framed. Beyond technical knowledge, it is about learning to look, to know what we are facing before taking the photograph, because, as the photographer herself says: ‘photographers are tamers of light’.
These sessions will include some preliminary explanations, but will mainly consist of a series of practical exercises through which participants will discover, in a fun way, the resources of composition and lighting to improve their technique and creativity when taking photographs.
