What is originally ours, and what glued to us by the media, by society or our friends and family? How are we designing our body and how it is being designed against our will by other forces?
In the workshop we will explore how our reality meets our body and transforms into an improvisation, into structure, into relations between characters, into performance. The search will include investigation of personal realities (family, home, friends) as well as more global realities (country, culture, world). We will invent assignments and will try them on each other, we will look for inspiration on the street, in the media and over the internet – and will let all those influences to effect our research in the studio.
