the artistic research
From a place of crying, an emotional state that embodies both friction and the potential for release, the group will research the somatic experience of tears.
They will delve into the duration, intensity, and intention of this vulnerable state.
Digging into the scattered and the moments in-between each movement, they seek to observe every hiccup and tension that emerges in a crying session. Within this, they are curious to engage wording and voicing. By placing words on paper and outloud, they hope to transform the physicality of crying in a poetic and fictional scape.
Falling into crying is falling into care, in this research the artists want to find ways of holding space for friction to exist and unfold. Creating a nest of references, memories and elements of comfort.
the artists
The desire to collaborate comes from a place of shared interest in writing and choreography.
This group of artists have been invited into residency through the open call IN PROCESS - FRICTION, whose focus was to give space for an investigation of resistance. The open call was curated in collaboration with Cath Borch.
