VENUE_ Eden Studios, Breite Str. 43, 13187 BERLIN
In this 6 days workshop we focus on improvisations and composing at the present moment.
The invitation is to respect uncertainty while adapting to constant change.
Body and voice are the instruments that produce dramatic and / or poetic material from a state of attentiveness and readiness.
By applying the UNFOLD® method throughout the research, we can work from a more balanced and awakened self, aware of personal habits and equipped with tools to partly get rid of them.
The potential of the artist as a whole, including unconscious processes and intuition, can then unfold, interplaying powerfully to space, time, form, movement, emotions and stories, giving shape to solo, group and couple compositions.
During these days, the roles of external eye and creator/performer will rotate, both fundamental to advance in this process of composition.
We will close the week by performing a structured improvisation created by the participants.
