Workshop - concerto
“Fall in the axis of what holds you fall in the echo of what held you towards what holds you again ”
In this 3 day workshop we will explore the choreographic and physical concepts that were used to create the performance concerto.
We will focus on the exploration of deep listening and embodied resonance:
Of the self, the other, the group and to the environment.
Through proposals that awaken the body’s energetic and sonic landscapes , we will bring to question the notions of experience, porosity and sharing in order to create meeting points between kinetic virtuosity, somatic attention and deep presence.
We will move through continual transformations of tactile and instinctive physicalities that are triggered by the dialogue between impulse and archive, freedom and restraint, the real and the imagined. Lastly, we will engage with systems of object work used in concerto, where the body initiates a shifting architecture of synthetic landscapes and textures.
We will work with tarps and other objects present in the scenography of the piece.
