Protests are powerful sensory experiences that embody sound, sight, and touch. They intertwine bodies, places, and voices. Echoes of Resistance grew from this understanding: a collaborative project shaped through workshops with activists in Barcelona, Paris and Brussels. Together, participants explored the sensory and emotional dimensions of collective action —how protest and resistance feel, how they sound, and how they are shared. The process resulted in two interconnected works: soundscapes that capture the auditory textures and atmospheres of protest, and silent videos that explore movements’ expressions, interactions, and emotions. Both pieces invite reflection on how protests communicate beyond words and how those experiences linger in memory and body. 

Grounded in co-creative inquiry, the project brought together the theatre experiences of Autogestionados, the activist-research perspective of BASCULE, Anna Halbleib’s moving-image expertise, and the commitment of numerous activists. Echoes of Resistance is a process-based work that honours shared creativity and embodied experience.
