Course Description

Summary

This advanced level project-based course is designed for students, who have prior experience of making a work around a body, especially (yet not limited) in dance, theater and visual arts context. Inspired by butoh-based movement practice and philosophies, students will seek a way of liberating a body from socially pre-conditioned self. While engaging in some particular somatic experience in the class, students will develop and propose body-based work every 2 weeks with different themes such as “process of ever-becoming” “inconsumable body” “subject-less being” “dance of darkness.”  Ultimately, each student is encouraged to question any pre-imposed conceptual frames that have been defining self, and search for alternate ways of being.
