The art of storytelling, the art of stories, is the subject explored by this first session of "Assemblea delle Lucciole"/diARiA, from Palermo, Sicily. Storytelling is a popular art form which has been revitalized as a performance art and as a community form of sharing and building. With the words, sounds and stories of creative female artists and cultural producers from the Middle East, we explore artivism (arts and activism), particularly through the community storyteller Sally Shalabi in Jordan and so in the Middle East, drawing on a postcolonial and intersectional feminism perspective that puts light on the female creative agency.
Storytelling and sharing stories or "Cerchi di Parola" is also the practice of a community of women in a multicultural space "Casa di Ramia" in Verona, Italy. And we move also to the singer and songwriter Badiaa Bouhrizi in Tunisia who is the griot – the conteuse- with her Tunisian, Amazigh and African sounds.
