Earth in me
Both in dance and in aesthetic perception, I was influenced and shaped a lot by trips and residencies in Morocco, Turkey, Japan, India, Uzbekistan, Iran and Indonesia, where I studied dance and music. However, the influences were always mixed with my Moravian roots.
Playing piano and percussion gave me a certain musicality, very valuable for dance. Perhaps the biggest influence for me was my partner - a musician Hearn Gadbois, then dancer Sashar Zarif and a long line of inspiring teachers of improvisation and composition (Sandra Reeve, Suprapto Suryodarmo, Daniel Lepkoff, David Zambrano, Kirstie Simson, Smadar Emor, Ruth Zappora, Julyen Hamilton and many others).
This year we will meet at a cottage in the Orlické Mountains, where we will sleep, cook and where we also have a gym for morning exercises and exploration. During the day we will mainly create in the field. Artistically and physically. We will document, discuss and present the entire work.
Movement work is based on the Eco-somatic approach of perceiving the body as landscape and landscape as body. These are meditative deep processes that challenge and invite us into the creativity dormant in each of us.
As part of the workshop, we will offer various art materials, which are included in the price.
workshop: CZK 7000,-
accommodation: CZK 1600,-
... we'll get together for a meal and cook together.
