The CCN and La Belle Électrique have joined forces to offer Kaléidoscopes, a series of workshops for children aged 8 to 11. Part music, part dance, this series of workshops with artists Ramon Lima and Arash Sarkechik offers a chance to explore different dance styles and musical genres through practical games. A way of linking and sharing artistic disciplines that have always crossed and intermingled.
Ramon Lima is a dancer whose choreographic research focuses on the experience of the body as the center of aesthetic and conceptual reflection in his projects. He trained at the Brasilia Arts Institute, where he studied performing arts. In 2019, he moved to France and enrolled in the Master's program in Artistic Creation, Performing Arts at Grenoble-Alpes University, where he explored issues relating to his artistic practice in greater depth. Ramon Lima creates his first solo pieces, Protopolis in 2021 and Somnambule in 2023. In 2025, Ramon Lima prepares his new creation, CALOR, a piece for three performers that physically explores different scales of heat. In France Ramon Lima also performs for Anne Collod, Ivana Müller and Julie Desprairies, and in Portugal for André Braga and Clàudia Figueiredo.
Arash Sarkechik was born in Grenoble to Iranian parents exiled in France. His childhood and adolescence were steeped in Persian culture. He studied music with the transverse flute as his first instrument, and followed a curriculum with classical preferences. A creative jack-of-all-trades, he took up other instruments and became interested in rock music. Now a seasoned multi-instrumentalist and musician, his original compositions reveal him to be an inspired and inspiring singer-songwriter. His latest album, Bazaari, delivers a repertoire of "nomadic" songs with colorful arrangements and a sense of celebration. Persian, Middle Eastern and North African sounds blend with powerful contemporary grooves to create a festive, poetic bazaar!
