Our research investigates different ways of embodying empathetic experiences through bodily movement. Empathy fuels connection. In order for the audience to connect with the performer, they have to connect with something in themselves. It is through a particular noticing, thinking and approaching movement, that we hope to expand a viewer’s own corporal awareness.
We are interested in empathy as a force to change our bodies, and the space-time that exists between us. We explore these concepts through refining various improvisation scores and practices. Our bodies are vessels in the artistic games we are involved within. Through play, we create content. Our bodies are conduits of a greater force.
