10:00AM to 12:00PM
We are looking for a group of 16 individuals to participate in a workshop culminating in the performance of move – a 70-minute dance/installation under the direction of celebrated Canadian dance artist, Peggy Baker.
move is a community engagement project that explores basic dualities of caregiving: touching and being touched, watching and being witnessed, movement through the body and that same body’s movement through space. move calls up a multitude of ancient and timeless images; earth being plowed, the molding of clay, the kneading of bread, a midwife at work, a storm gathering, the swell of an ocean, the movement of a glacier, the heaving of a continent, the passing of time.
Individuals interested in being part of this powerful community engagement project are invited to register for a two-hour workshop from which 16 performers will be selected to work with Ms. Baker in the preparation and performance of this event.
Workshop: Saturday, November 10 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Art Gallery of Hamilton, 123 King Street West.
move will be performed on February 2, 2019.
Presented in partnership with Office of Clinical & Organizational Ethics at Hamilton Health Sciences.
