Course Description
This workshop will encompass a practical engagement with your tutor's approach to movement/the body in relationship to materials and making of performance work, sculpture and mark-making.
You will explore working between mediums of movement (from a somatic dance approach), writing and drawing - how the different encounters feed into each other.
No dance movement experience is needed, no visual arts experience needed either.
