We have started a process of community work and performance, that has been confirmed as a potential mine for art research by "4 Temperaments 4 Elements" during this summer 2007, with the presence of mime, dance, eurythmy, performance, painting, photography, printing, music and words. Everything comming from countries like: Venezuela, Switzerland, Spain, Japan, Germany, Uk.
The pictures above are some of the images reflecting the product of 6 month research within different art disciplines, working under the challenge of distance and individual commitment. We are very pleased with results and we want to express our gratitude to the London audience, Venezuelan Embassy, Stourbridge Town Hall, Londondance.com, London magazine, London Express Newss, Stourbridge News, and Park Road Pilot support, at the same time to express gratitude to a group of people who supported and helped us a lot before, during and after the event: Carolina Restrepo (without her marketing wouldn't been possible! my greatest support the whole time), Joel Aragon, Marcia Torres, Jonas, Ryszard Rojewski, Greg Bold, Alberto Fuentes, Peter Jordan, Georgina Big, Michael Crouch and my apollogises if I am forgeting someone, I thank you very much too!
Finally, express my many many thanks to each of the artists involved, for their passion, commitment, love to the arts, support to my initial idea and the quality of the performance and art pieces than they brought.
Looking forward to a new year full of opportunities and well deserve finantial support!!!.
Many thanks!!!

"Barefoot Creatives/Descalzos Creativos" will have a moment of collective expression, having as an aim the showing and promoting of Latin American, native and/or foreign creativity in European lands. Meeting different art dissiplines within same space and theme, to find the truth in each of us within artistic expression. Understanding "truth" not as something you get from art critics judgment, but as that product you get by reveling your soul without intentional formulas, but full of naivity, inner investigation, love for creation and a longing for social contribution. "Truth" as a social archetype.
"Barefoot Creatives/Descalzos Creativos" started as Tibaire Useche's Dream of creating a multidisciplinary performance in which the audience could live the performance space with all their senses and the artist could approach each theme from a completely different background, point of view and way of expression.
Last year we make the first performance-research at Bailey Gallery in Stourbridge Town, having as research theme "Behind the threshold". As the response of the audience and artists in that opportunity was so positive and encouraging we will have a second moment of collective expression in which one of the aims is the showing and promoting of Latin American, native and/or foreign creativity in European lands.
This time we are working with "4 Temperaments, 4 Elements" as motor theme. Four temperaments is a subject which has been studied by many, all through the course of history, and which describes the 4 main characters present in human beings (choleric, phlegmatic, sanguine and melancholic), also 4 elements present in nature (fire, water, air and earth) and their effect on the human being.
Each artist (plastic or performer) have the freedom to approach this subject in a very personal way, they could express the colours present on temperaments (red, green, yellow and blue), taking on board exaggerate emotions from the temperaments (anger, sadness, passivity on the limit and hyperactive joyfulness) or the most positive side of them (leadership and drive of the choleric, introspective, fun, extroversive and active sanguine or the patience, dedication and perseverance of the phlegmatic)
Each person would have chosen different elements on the theme, using completely different materials, starting points and art disciplines; being sincere with what they feel is their way of expressing through art, being free, and creating a truly collective performance.
People involved in this project are from all over the world: Joel Aragon Colin (Dance, Mexico), Tommie Ando (Eurhythmy, Japan), Maren Stott (eurhythmy, Germany/UK), Fatima Gomes (Dance, Venezuela), Sergio Otero (Mime, Spain), Carolina Restrepo (Painting, Venezuela), Elisa Fernandez Arteta (Video dance, Spain), Paula Restrepo y Liz Perez with Puro Pie Dance Co (Dance, Venezuela), Janeth Berretini (Action Painting, Switzwerland), Hermann Buhler (Music, Switzerland), Ailet Izurrieta (dance, Netherlands), Isabel de Jesus (Photography, Venezuela), Fung Ye Tsang (Visual art, UK), everything as an impulse from Tibaire Useche ("Barefoot Creatives/Descalzos Creativos". Dance-Photography, Venezuela).

Water! Water!
I’m thirsty for life,
Every part of me needs to be nourished with emotions,
Flowing on positive actions
To be guide by them
to the ocean of the future
Dripping joy and satisfaction
From every pore of my being.
