Raw-mantic
Raw-mantic
The epoch of Romanticism can be traced back from the end of the 18th
century
to the late 19th century, whereby literary romanticism dates
approximately to
the years 1795 to 1848. Therefore between classical music, Sturm und
Drang,
sensibility, enlightenment and Biedermeier, Vormärz and realism it
stands. I
invite you to discover in this workshop the ability to express the
sensitivity of
your body in motion. You enter into an empty space with a feather of
your
choice, size and color and meet a partner. We begin as couples with
romantic
poetry to court each other Vis A Vis. There are 5 stations: romantic
talk,
walk, watch and touch, which will lead us to a romantic dance. Simply
romantic
–this workshop is a mélange of somatic sensing and creative poetry! Ask
for the
hand Madame … a Walz … or a Minouett .
We make the twist and create a simple dance out of our raw-man-tick
gestures,
as we search for the words and movement to accompany us through this
workshop. You will be asked to share your body as a canvas with your
partner to
relate the one word in which you wish to beome the reality of your
experience.
