A choreographed and collaboratively based movement workshop for artists of all disciplines.
Participants are coached in an ensemble dance founded on each individual’s relationship with every other ensemble member. How the collaborative work comes to life is through a practiced use of many performative tools. A few examples follow:
- What one experiences does not accumulate. The dance reflects what is not already known.
- The ensemble work is supported by practices of perception rather than movement training and agility, although these attributes are not ignored.
- It is the continuity of how we learned to see that failed to recognize the infinite nature of our reality. What keeps our ensemble work alive is a collective acknowledgement of a discontinuous and infinitely resourceful reality experienced differently by everyone.
