Movement workshop: Organic machine

What is your natural body, state, movement?
And what would an inorganic body, nature and dance look like?

"For the last 2-3 years I have been interested in dance as a different technological mix. Contemporary dance has brought me deep into the natural matter of my body that moves according to the desires, needs, interests of personal flesh, in my own rhythm. to rise in dialogue with my body with five senses - I 'listened' to the breathing of my cell and felt the dance inside.
In the workshop, we compare the organic nature of the movement of the body and movement to the possible artificiality and mechanicality. We experiment with various motion dance techniques such as isolation, waving, popping, ticking, slow and quick motion, and bring them into dialogue with personal movement language. Let's work together to find answers to the questions, what is artificial movement? and what happens to our being when mechanical thinking enters the body? "

The workshop will provide a safe and supportive environment where you can reconnect with the core of your body and movement and experiment creatively with its possible artificial versions.
Everyone who is interested in their movement and the nature of dance is welcome!
