ROPE & SILKS

INTERTWINING DYNAMIC MOVEMENT AND CREATION

A space to develop tools and methods for creating choreographic sequences on rope and silks through sensitive listening to aerial movement practice

WORKSHOP PHILOSOPHY

The workshop seeks the connection between technique and research on aerial props, considered as creative elements on stage. It is proposed as a space to develop tools and methods for the creation of choreographic sequences on rope and silks through a sensitive listening to the aerial movement practice.

After introducing principles of dynamic movement in the air, we will study some choreographic sequences which merge an intertwined vocabulary with dynamic transitions, understanding the tasks, logics and methods they were created with.

THE PATH

OPEN TO

People with a practice on aerials and interested in exploring the connection between technique and research. We will work on creative impro tasks that explore the partnering relationship between the body and the prop in order to offer participants new inputs to improve their own personal language and material.

CLARA LARCHER

Italian aerial rope specialist who deepened her studies in Buenos Aires, attending the Dance program with specialization “Expresión Corporal” at UNA. She has worked as aerial acrobat in Compañía Depáso and after attending one year at Flic Circus School she created her personal show “Araké”.

Interested in all formats of movement research, she aims to explore the potential of the body in relation with the aerial apparatus, opening choreographic and narrative possibilities.

THE END

A moment to open the process to the group with feedbacks. Participants will share their discoveries and insights, creating a collective understanding of the journey from technique to artistic expression.
