Home:Body

The workshop will offer a combination of my ongoing research around the stories our bodies carry, human connection, and ‘Home’. Starting with games and movement warm-up to familiarise ourselves with the space and tune into our bodies, the session will lead into task-based improvisations exploring some of the themes of the workshop through movement and text. We will be using props and objects as prompts for our exploration. The objects will be visually described, and the interaction with these objects can be visual, auditory or tactile. The workshop will also involve using the gestural elements of Bharatanatyam (South Asian Classical Dance) to express the stories of our exploration. The workshop will look at how our body is a home to many stories, and how one object/ word can be perceived in multiple ways based on our lived experiences. We will be working individually, in pairs and as a group. Contact and floorwork is completely optional throughout the workshop, and all participants are invited to explore only as far as they feel comfortable.
