Kitt Johnson (Denmark) will present a workshop focusing on the physics of energy and time, mind and body in the moment of confrontation.
“My prime focus is to investigate the basic existence of body and mind in the theatrical space. To support the skeleton, the flesh, the skin in the service of metamorphosis. To expose the body so naked, so empty and with no relief that the “other” can appear.” - Kitt Johnson
Through tasks based on image work, the awareness of presence and energy will be strengthened, partner work will increase the physical body awareness and improvisational/compositional work will sharpen the personal ability of expression.
Technically the workshop is based on post butoh, expressionistic theatre, martial arts and new dance. Recommended for students and fully professional dancers, actors and visual artists.

Venue: Dancehouse, 150 Princes Street, North Carlton
