Quim Bigas Bassart
Tuning – bodies as mediation

Through the years, Quim´s explorations has been centered on the ways in which we meet and are changed by the encounters we are a part of. In line with this, everything that is constitutive of a space plays a role for the possibility of tuning into and finding tonalities that gather us. In these professional training classes, you may expect different attempts of tuning in and becoming available through physical practices.

We will be working with a structure that, progressively, opens up issues of togetherness, gathering and belonging. Most of the exercises include the involvement of the senses inside an attentive frame while being in movement. The body will be approached and put into practice as mediator, as a channel between different points of reference. The sessions will, most likely, suggest a progression from space to commonality, shaping ground from where to bring the ways we attend and are in relations into attention.

Most of the activities in this class will originate practices and exercises from Quim´s projects, such as APPRAISERS, D’ENÇÀ and VOY Y BAND.

We might work indoors or outdoors, depending on weather. We ask the participants to bring comfortable shoes.

The classes are held at Dansehallerne, Franciska Clausens Plads 27 DK-1799 Copenhagen V in Studio 3.
