DIGITAL MEDIA

“Crossing Stages is the story of artists who embark themselves in the adventure of searching a common identity in Europe today. Coordinated by Spain, along with France, Italy, Portugal, and Slovenia, the project was co-funded by the European Union. It connects new generations with classic myths through practice in the arts. The main segment took place in 2013-2015, and selected actions were still up in 2022. I worked as communication director mostly coordinating film/media. Crossing Stages Web Series features 6 digital media works selected from a total of at least 29 videos and 72 interviews made by filmmakers from participating European countries.” —PV I Crossing Stages
