Vanessa Augusto, the author of the FEMINA project, invited 6 artists who will be part of the DDD program to participate in her podcast and discuss "their goals, vulnerabilities, and desires".

The first guest is Lia Rodrigues, who is presenting Encantado at DDD. Lia is an associated artist of Théâtre National de Chaillot and Centquatre-Paris, and in 1990 she founded the Lia Rodrigues Companhia de Danças in Brazil. One of the guests is also choreographer Tânia Carvalho, recently appointed Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters of France. The artist will be presenting two shows at DDD: Madmud and Versa-vice, and will also conduct a workshop at CAMPUS Paulo Cunha e Silva.

Odete, who will curate the first DDD party, is also part of the podcast guest list. The Porto-based artist focuses her work on fictional narratives of secret societies, paranoid archesarches, and eroto-historiography. The guest of the following episode is Vânia Doutel Vaz, who is also part of the DDD CAMPUS program with the workshop ENTRE | SENTE. On April 27th and 28th, she will be presenting O Elefante no Meio da Sala at Campo Alegre.

Piny & Nala, creators of Vogue PT Chapter, are at DDD for the second consecutive year. This year they are in charge of the Art Liberates Ball at the Coliseu do Porto Ageas, a moment to celebrate artists, beauty, and creativity. The last guest is Daniela Cruz, who makes her choreographic debut at the festival. In dalila, she will explore the search for identities, in a tribute that projects into the future.

The FEMINA podcast started in 2020 with the aim of recognizing women artists. In each episode, Vanessa invites a woman for a conversation that celebrates their achievements and empowerment in the arts.
