I want to open up the space for a joint investigation of 'plant becoming' as 'a labor of unlearning certain somatic and mental habits' (Karen L. F. Houle) through dance.

Dance is physical work and knowledge-making area, influencing the way of thinking, perceiving and attending to things.

The sessions will have a form of peer-to-peer exchange and are initiated for educational purposes. I invite everyone to practice the perception of our tangible selves as co-extensive with the environment, to explore together such qualities as complete exposure, connectivity, acceptance of all nuances. We will be mixing somatic techniques with plant philosophy, recipes for producing bio-plastic with movement scores, political contexts with fantasizing, feminist practice with biology textbooks and so on.

There will be 8 sessions (2,5h each) oriented around different issues:
snacking on light ︎ extraterrestrial space and the earth – a period issue ︎ exchanging resources and nutrients ︎ temporalities ︎ space & scale ︎ ‘one that does not distinguish between objects & substances’ ︎ a safety issue ︎ radical openness
