Voicing Motion is a research practice on creative movement and voice.
It explores various relations between physicality and sonority of the body.
Within the practice, the voice is a concrete and dynamic element that finds its source in the engagement of a present body.
Starting from breathing and physical awakening of body and voice, we will dive into tasks and guided improvisations to explore technical and creative connections between the two.
Some of the elements proposed are: creation of text and its deconstruction, exploration of imaginative states arising from physical awareness, rhythmical and musical tools, character building and more.
The practice focuses on the body-voice as a source for material imagination to arise: the physicality informs the sound and vice versa in a playground of individual and collective body materials.
Which power has voice as a communicative tool between bodies? And how important is it today to dive into personal voice in order to coexist and build listening with others’ ones?
The practice is open to whoever is interested in expanding creative work and/or has experience in physical practices (movement, dance, theatre, performance, singing).
