Workshops and Residencies — Art, Creation and Transdisciplinarity in the Grand Paris

Daniel Joppert

For more than a decade, Daniel Joppert has explored territories, behaviors, and collective imaginaries through a transdisciplinary approach that combines research, visual storytelling, and cultural engagement. Founder of JoPA Creative Company, he has been involved in more than 130 projects for major clients (Netflix, YouTube, Itaú, AB InBev…) and has coordinated two Brazilian cities’ applications to join the UNESCO Creative Cities Network (Taubaté – City of Music; Bauru – City of Media Arts).

Since 2019, Daniel has been developing creative expeditions: independent, immersive journeys through regions of Brazil, Cuba, and Colombia. There, he documents the connections between memory, craftsmanship, ecology, popular culture, and the creative economy from a decolonial, place-based perspective. His work is situated at the crossroads of science, culture, and spirituality. He investigates biospheric ways of life and the possibility of reawakening ecological and collective intelligence in support of a regenerative society.
He has led the A La Traverse Residency project, which includes a phase carried out in territories across Colombia and concludes in France. The project will culminate in a book and a multimedia platform featuring analog photography, field notes, oral archives, and original texts.
