Reveling in the process of revealing one's artistic voice, there will be opportunities for the dance maker to look, experiment, fail/succeed, create, and experience. The workshop explores our relationship to dance as a viewer and maker through observation, dialogue and making. Through the daily practice of dance making, we journey through the discovery of frameworks or structures derived from one's own concepts, history, embodiment, or from the work itself; explore the concepts of distillation and interruption; examine the possibility of universal moments; discuss dance's potential to engage in contemporary issues while leaning towards a more informed artist voice using dance as the question and answer.
