In this workshop we will explore the relationship between clothing and our bodies, and the ways garments shape identity, expression, and perception. Through guided improvisation, we will discover how movement can shift the meaning and function of what we wear, revealing new possibilities for familiar garments and the bodies within them. We will explore the boundaries of restriction, expansion, flow, weight and rattle at the meaning and worth of every single garment in the room. We will then transform existing garments into new silhouettes: revealing and emphasizing bodies and movement, as well as create new associations through discovery of alternative usage. We will create these new structures through simple interventions such as cutting, knotting, weaving, ripping, detaching and reattaching. This is a movement/dance workshop with a material creation/alteration element. No experience in either is required. Participants are invited to bring a few garments and materials they are curious to move with, a pair of scissors and their body.
