SLOW MOTION STUDY
| 29.06 / | 14h15-16h15 |
a frame to slow down and investigate what is moving slow. tuning into our sensorial bodies, we will visit slowness through improvisation. you can expect physical tasks and images that will support the journey of this lab such as the transfer of weight giving rise to a specific physicality, the relationship to space and to others, gazes, balances, shared tensions, voluntary inhibition, the emergence of emotions in slowed-down movement, collective listening, dissociation of body parts, physical architecture, image work.
in a society that values speed, productivity, and immediate response, slowing down and improvising become acts of resistance.
her wish is to create a space for support, presence, and transformation, where we can dance, listen, try-out, speak, exchange, write, and hold that space for one another
