Movement Layering (Workshop)

Movement Layering

Monday, June 18, 2018 | 1-5pm
Scotiabank Dance Centre, Faris Family Studio | 677 Davie St. Vancouver

Build, warp, shape, and disrupt raw movement with methods used in Company 605’s creative process. This workshop will focus on movement construction and the malleability of what is made. Participants will experiment with layering tasks, qualities and values onto movement, and consider how this layering may affect what the movement is saying. They will be given starting points for searching out and building movement, suggestions for creative approaches to reworking movement, and ways of provoking new perspectives to support existing ideas. Working individually and in small groups, participants will build their own movement from scratch, but are also invited to bring existing movement to experiment with in the workshop. Likewise, participants may wish to use material created during the workshop to continue developing further on their own.
