Imagine (the Imagination of) the Other

On October 15th i will be facilitating a collective reflection session as part of:

Imagine (the Imagination of) the Other
a Symposium on PARTICIPATION AND CHOREOGRAPHIC COLLABORATION IN AN EXPANDING FIELD

What does it mean to invite people who have not chosen dance as their profession, people we call children, young people, and others, to meet in the choreographic process? To dance, to perform, to choreograph together? What could it mean?

Taking Laura Navndrup Black’s Artistic Research project “Imagining the imagination of the Other” as a starting point, this four-day symposium invites participants to (re-)approach the idea of access within the field of participation and choreography.

The symposium emphasises shared practical speculation and requires every participant to take part in all sessions. The programme alters between workshops and presentations and concludes with a collective reflection session facilitated by Lisa Nyberg (SE).

Solveig Styve Holte (NO), Alice Chauchat (FR/G), Gillie Kleiman (UK), Deborah Macedo (BRA) and Laura Navndrup Black (DK) will share selected aspects of their work and research through practice, discussions and presentations. Together we will think up ways to meet across, dive into or move beyond difference.
