open studio practice: encounters without division
the core of live art is the encounter
Open studio practice is a personal and group awarenesstrainingof body/mind/space through meditation and action. Dancers, Musicians, Artists, Performers, Actors and Poets have been invited to follow an open structure and meet the moment without any preconceptions.
Practice begins by meeting with oneself, the other, the space.
It’s not about performance.
There is no outside eye. If you are a visitor please attend t following participant’s score.
There are stories, no plot.No talk about anything or anyone.
Open studio practice is a framework of experience where the action and the creation become a collective responsibility. We create time and space to explore new territory and also what already is known. We take time for caretaking and giving. We participate in the social and political dynamics of the ensemble of us in the present moment.
Everything is appropriate except harming yourself or others.
