callus & analysis
I give you callus & analysis in the garden of eden, Berlin. A workshop designed for those who want to create a balance between working hard and smart. it is A technical and physical approach, jam-packed with improvisation, set material, and analytical tasks. In these days, we will analyse the how, what, and why, in order to make a point of our performance. We will create a space to explore and share ideas, while using tools and tasks to push our limits. We will take time to run, fly, jump, dive, fall, and get up to keep going. As always, we will be accompanied by 100% sun-energised and hand-squeezed tunes to groove to! See you there.
the description reflects an artist’s idea which was developed at the time it was submitted to b12. it may have changed by the time the workshop or the performance project is starting. please stay flexible. thank you!
