Sparks is a participatory project based on a simple act: children read adults their future in the palm of their hands, as a hopeful gesture and as a break with the past.  SPARKS puts us in the situation of interpretation of the body, providing the viewer with an unique view of the world and making children become future tellers and bearers of magical powers for a while.
