the empty house or the house of emptiness
For this fall workshop, we have a large empty house with a spacious garden at our disposal. We will train in the house, in the garden and in the great outdoors. We will embark on a performative search for lost time, because an abandoned house is always impregnated with traces of memory. Our field of perception and research is the house, the garden, our own bodies and the void.
Where there is nothing, everything is possible
For me, “empty space” is the point or place in a creative process
where nothing comes to mind and an absolute emptiness spreads in my head.
Peter Brook
Requirement:
Interest in exploring empty space, the void. What is empty space in relation to body and mind? How can I allow and endure the empty space? How does my body sensation change in empty space?
