Within the architecture of the moving body live the stories of all that we are and have dreamed. Exploring these layers is to come into contact with our unique universe.
The Body as Source Series is an embodied journey to uncover what is alive in us, and to awaken a visceral and essential relationship with our expressive potential. You can drop into different modules, or approach the work as an interconnected journey.

WORLDS WITHIN
31ST OCTOBER & 1ST NOVEMBER
“I sit bewildered in the playground of the dead. Here I wish to dance and dance and dance and dance, the life of the wild grass. I see the wild grass, I am the wild grass, I become one with the universe.” -Kazuo Ohno
This 2-day day workshop event invites you into a relationship with your private inner worlds. These deep interior spaces of memory, imagination, fantasy and myth are the foundation for any artists creative world. To learn these places, to reach them, to descend and navigate them is to contact your unique creative universe. Here visions might materialise and dreams can surface to become known.
Through structured movement frameworks, we will embark on a voyage into the subterranean levels of our imagination, encountering images and dreams through the body-life. We will explore practices of movement-meditation, collective story-weaving, private journaling and visual art as a way to document our discoveries. This workshop is for:
-
Anyone developing or interested in movement practice
-
Artists developing performance or film projects who would like a space to dream ideas
-
Artists of all ages and disciplines interested in working within a nourishing and rigorous creative space
DREAMING LAB
SATURDAY 5TH & SUNDAY 6TH DECEMBER
Dreaming Lab is a 2-day creative space of experimentation - a laboratory to trial, gestate and birth creative worlds. It is aimed at artists of all disciplines seeking a space to test ideas with others. You might be an artist who wants to explore concepts, themes or characters for a new project. You might be looking to explore an idea with a group of people and have a space to experiment and open creative possibilities. You might want to create a space to explore a particular myth or a dream you’ve had with the support of a community.
Over the two days we will explore research processes that encourage play and curiosity, cultivating a testing ground for you to explore your creative ideas. Then, each artist will have time to lead a creative process, learn from your discoveries to map further pathways and receive invaluable support and mentorship for the project and creative worlds you are building. This space is dedicated to artists requiring a safe, rigorous and fertile space to experiment with creative dreams and bring them more fully into realisation.
