About the Event
Workshop Details
In this workshop we will explore the possibilities of writing as an embodied, whole-body or “incarnated” practice. Overcoming the traditional body vs mind split, we will approach the body as a thinking and feeling entity, a source of knowledge and creation; and challenge the idea that writing is a disembodied, cerebral action, disconnected from our senses. Using exercises drawing from performance practice (e.g. choreographic composition) as well as from experimental writing practices, we will explore a mode of writing that is imbued with physicality and in resonance with the outside world and with the reader.
