A dance and composition workshops – “A Score: Arranging the body in real time”
Agnieszka Kryst

Description:
A movement workshop focusing on body awareness and improvisation. During the workshop we will explore the most important dance practices (from cardio training to somatic practice) and arrangement practices from the field of contemporary choreography. No tension. No pressure. The movement and its intensity will result from a conscious choice rather than an order. The movement will be an opportunity for development, a potential and an intended creative decision.
The concept of transformation, which is the most important tool in the artist’s movement practice, will play a key role during the workshop. Transformation understood as the process of continuous change, minimisation and exaggeration, enslaving and liberating the body and movement at the level of a single gesture and emotion. On the other hand, the simultaneously developed practice of attentiveness will allow us to see the smallest changes in movement and break them down. Thus it will open the way for informed manipulation. Constant construction and deconstruction, build-up and reduction of material will present our bodies as spaces for a play of infinite amounts of meanings and possibilities.
