Motivated by antropologist Anna Tsing's idea of “cultivating joy in ruin” and other feminist
approaches, we will journey through social and environmental contexts in constant crisis.
Through dance, writing and drawing, we'll explore choreographic proposals manifesting the
social, the pleasure, the individual and collective body. In groups, duets and solos, we'll explore the body as a material through which a plurality of states, movements and emotions are mediated. We'll sweat to pop and techno music, enter in somatic dances, address touch as a sensitive and political act, and observe how our bodies can be a place of joy, and resistance. We will write and draw to document our dances and experiences. Each session begins with a physical warm-up, followed by physical explorations or dance improvisations, and ends with drawing, writing or speaking.
