Physical Dialogues

Energetic, dynamic, physical

This Workshop is addressed to dance amateurs with athletic training background interested in dance as artistic form of expression.
Physical Dialogues’ main content is partnering and communication.
The subject for this workshop will be: Life-sized dolls. With partnering I refer to people wishing to communicate, searching for sharing intentions and trying to establish new codes for dialogue in movement.
We will frame stories, work with specific types of manipulation and tune the physical intentions until moulding the image of dealing with our „inanimate friend“. We will have to consider the frontiers of cooperation, sense of existence and our surroundings as well as many other aspects related to partnering techniques and performing such as trust, weight, sharing timings, leaders and followers etc.
Movement is the key tool of the workshop and the spirit will be energetic, physical and dynamic.
