 Hello everybody, I'm very very glad to be with you today. It's a little bit strange because I can't see you but thank you for this opportunity. Yeah, so in this global cultural moment and especially within the context of present-day Syria, the biggest challenge we are facing today we believe is fixed mindset. And we believe that societies can evolve to a growth mindset by raising its awareness and developing a deep understanding of emotional intelligence and mental resilience with the community. As a physical theater group that has worked for over 20 years in Auto Portrait Method, nurturing the emotional intelligence of the performer, we believe that we can apply a vital role in collective positivity and creativity, particularly in the young generation of artists as well as within our society at large. So just said, it means body in Arabic is our current project we are trying to achieve now. It's an independent space in Damascus for local community and artists from young generation and independent artists and researchers. This space offers several programs that aim to expand the awareness of the body and know more about the mind and to develop the ability of processing objective experiences and questioning outdated concept in performing arts, developing theatrical and dance experiences and support independent artists and local researchers. And we want to help them to develop their creative practice. So the space will be, will offer a place for local community and artists to come together and to engage in some way. Why we are doing this now? Because we survived from the war, but we trapped by victim mentality that currently dominates our society, makes any hope for better future seems to be impossible with its deterministic view of the world. But we believe it's not true and want to survive from this too. Of course, we face a lot of challenges. The biggest one, the primary one is with the economic sanctions, which does not even allow us to start online crowdfunding, despite that the project is totally independent from any Syrian governmental or private institutions. And by the way, with this, nobody wants to believe that the sanctions are not on the regimes but on citizens. So this is the huge problem we are facing now or challenge we are facing. Also, there is a legal system differences between Syrian independent institutions and abroad. It is a challenge too, because it makes long term funding very difficult and sometimes workable. Realizing and keeping artistic and dependency was always difficult, especially in Syria, because you are not allowed to be independent anyway, but we deal with this like 20 years now. But that also become more and more challenging too in this case. And there is also the inability of donor cultural institution to be independent of ideological control, which is another fixed mindset for us. It becomes more difficult to deal with that and reduce ever it's it is reducing opportunities for any other artistic choices. I don't know if I gave all details needed about our current situation here and our way of thinking and what we want to achieve. I hope that I told you enough about that. So I don't know if there's any questions or I don't know. I thank you very much for this opportunity. I'm so glad to be here and to talk about the work. Thank you. Thank you very much.
