Initiated by Rosalind Crisp platform for international artistic exchange and embodied understanding with its potential to profoundly affect our ways of thinking/dancing in the world. Activities included: performances of existing works, collaborations on new works, residencies, research, seminars. Multiple pods of activity occured at each site, building upon existing relationships developed by the artists. Year one (2016/2017) sites included: Berlin, Zagreb, Ljubljana, Poznan and eastern Finland. A second year focused on in-bound activities to East Gippsland, Victoria.
Platform East embraced the shifting international circumstances of creative endeavor, affirming dialogue as the most ethical means of developing cultural exchange, keeping the artist at its center.
