Movement workshop: Attention. Attention? Attention! -CANCELLED

How do you find balance on a slippery rock in the sea? How to walk barefoot on snow? How do you react when every movement triggers an avalanche of sounds?

In the movement workshop "Attention. Attention? Attention!” you can try out for yourself the principles that have inspired the performance "Singularity".

You begin to notice what you notice because you pay attention to your attentiveness. To do this, we slow down together to focus on specific aspects of the movement. In the workshop, we tune our body and mind using various exercises to let go of control, find confidence in not knowing and regain freedom to move. Moving with others creates bodily experiences that we later use to create personal improvisations.

The workshop is intended for everyone, but especially for those who are interested in movement and dancing, are ready to explore the principles of movement both alone and with a partner and are open for a physical challenge in a playful way. Previous dance experience is not essential.

The workshop is based on the working methods of the performance "Singularity". These methods are part of Külli Roosna and Kenneth Flak's "Responsive Body" practice, which they have been developing for more than 10 years. In addition to personal movement experience, you can gain insight into how Roosna and Flak make sense of movement and approach creation processes.

The workshop is conducted by internationally active dance and multimedia artists Külli Roosna (Estonia) and Kenneth Flak (Norway/Estonia), who have been collaborating since 2008. For more information about the artists and their practices, visit roosnaflak.com.
