on the sea (2nd round) 7 days creative expedition and workshop on a sailing boat, Greece
Dear friends of Marcozzi Contemporary Theater,
Daniela here!
Some weeks ago, I and my partners in crime “LAFRI on art and beyond” launched the call for “The Urge of Being” on the sea, creative expedition and workshop on the sailing boat LAFRI in Greece.
I am very happy to announce that we are ready to go!
The group is formed and we are organizing the expedition! 🙂
We received a lot of interest for this project by many people, so we decided to launch a second call for the “coming back” expedition from 29.06.2024 to 06.07.2024!!
Seven overnights on the boat.
A few spots are still available.
The program is the following:
29.06 meeting in Andros (Korthi) port, Cyclades Archipelago, Greece.
29.06 one afternoon workshop in Andros and setting of the boat.
We sleep on the boat
30.06 – 05.07 sailing in the Cyclades Archipelago and workshop
06.07 in the morning disembark in Andros (Korthi) port
Why this project?
In the last years, I have launched many projects, residencies and site-specific performances on the sea, on boats, in contact with grey whales in Baja California, Mexico.
Motivated by the vivid and inexplicable sense of recognition and sense of belonging that I – and many people – feel when we are at the sea, I began to bring my artistic practice closer and closer to the sea and its creatures.
What happens to the creative processes when we take it away from the studio, or from the theater, from a very-anthropocentric setting, and we bring it in touch with the sea?
During the expedition, in tune with the rhythms and navigational demands of sailing on the open sea, we will be exploring:
– Meditation and breathing sequences
– Embodiment exercises: we will explore the undulatory component of movement, gesture and action. The undulatory nature of voice, the union of body and voice.
– Creative writing exercises
– Sensory exercises
– Dance and movement impro on the boat
– Final round
Sailing, communal life and supporting the daily tasks on the boat (maintenance, cooking, sailing, cleaning) will be active parts of the research.
