Coaching is dedicated to techniques of working with the unconscious that allow us to discover reality as a dream and the dream as reality. Using these techniques, workshop explores dance as a vehicle for transformation. The essence of this transformation is the movement between ME and NOT-ME, which, although unconscious, is an ever-present aspect of ourselves, containing elements of our alternative personality. Research will be developed around the following questions: Can we be free from what we have learned so far? What would our dance be if we abandoned everything we had been taught about it? Who would we be if in the most important moments of our lives we took completely different directions than the ones we have been following? In a word: could we be someone else, and – if we discovered this otherness – would we really want it?
The coaching will simultaneously be an audition for the performance “Bataille and the Dawn of New Days”. The project, which is being prepared for spring 2016, is inspired by the philosophy of Georges Bataille, French writer, philosopher, and contester of contemporary culture. Performative study of the idea of transgression, with the most important question of our time in the background: are we completely closed in the culture in which we live, or is another way possible, and if so, which way leads and to what worlds?
