Description

This workshop offers an immersive experience in Viktoriapark, inviting participants to perceive and interact with the architecture, landscape, and urban flows through body, presence, and movement—transforming the public space into a playground for motion and artistic expression. Through guided improvisation, body awareness exercises, and site-specific exploration, we will engage with the park’s surroundings, reimagining how the body converses with the city and activating new narratives and relationships with the environment and passersby. How does movement shape our perception of space? How do public spaces influence the way we move? Open to people of all backgrounds, this workshop encourages creative experimentation, spontaneous interactions, and a fresh perspective on performance in everyday environments. At the end of each session, participants will have the opportunity to present a site-specific performance, bringing their explorations into a shared artistic experience. Step outside, take the stage, and let the city move with you! Come explore the park poetically, expanding your perception of the body in motion and the city as a living stage for art.
