A PRACTICE OF RETURN
Participants will be introduced to the physical research and choreography from the creative work of Black Collectivity. The class will begin with exercises to activate the senses and warm the body, including movement meditations, task based and improvisational exercises, as well as rhythm centered explorations. We will then dive into creative process and learn phrase material.
Led by Black Collectivity Artists Akoiya Harris and marco farroni
BLACK COLLECTIVITY
Black Collectivity (BC) is a way of being, a mode of survival, and a dream space. Since 2021, Black Collectivity organizes with the intention of bringing together diasporic people involved in creating and supporting movement based experiences. Under the guiding notion ‘we build collectivity out of necessity,’ BC finds its roots in the collective movement and contribution of Black communities in the PNW and beyond. Together the Black Collectivity team aims to make and support work that explores and celebrates memory and culture through embodied responses.
Black Collectivity Artists: Nia-Amina Minor, Akoiya Harris, marco farroni, David Rue
