Ways to Walk Towards Yourself With Jenna Agate, Trevor Timms and Angus Balbernie Tuesday 14th - Saturday 18th April 2009 10.00am to 5.00pm daily |
Another
opportunity to participate in this Landscape and Body workshop. By moving through the many-layered textures of landscape, and by observing and expressing different horizons, we shall bring the environment and the body together with our thoughts as a form of "expressive landscape" for individual and group exploration. We shall work with body and mind with daily walking and working in landscape. We shall move and create in the studio to investigate our actions and memories, shaping the "findings' of our active memories into narratives that shape "the other", a flexible proposition about expressing our inner and outer selves. We shall work to create "bodies of memory" that contain our stories; stories of seeing, thinking, touching, remembering, moving, creating, as a person, an artist, and as part of a landscape. If landscape is grounded, flexible and detailed, can we be too? The week will end with a sharing of material, in the diversity of forms expressed. Anyone interested in dance, performance, music, visual, tactile, sonic and all related disciplines, is invited to join us in this research week. Angus Balbernie, co-director of "SomaTerra:Para", an ongoing research project investigating the body, landscape and the tuning of body-in-landscape will join with Jenna Agate (choreographer) and Trevor Timms (psychotherapist and bodyworker) at The Studio on the Green to lead this 5 day workshop open to all. The Studio On The Green is situated in the beautiful Scottish Borders countryside within walking distance of wild hills, valleys, forests and rivers. The market town of Selkirk offers inexpensive accommodation in B & B's, Hotels, a campsite by the river and a youth hostel. There are plenty of cafes, take-aways and restaurants. Selkirk is a one hour drive from Edinburgh and one and a half hours from Carlisle and is on direct bus routes from both. Costs: £150.00 for the week. (£135.00 conc. and £95.00 for students in full-time education). A £75.00 deposit is required at the time of booking with the balance payable no later than Saturday 14th March 2009.
