Join performingborders for ‘Our Bodies in the Commons’ a day of movement, sharing, and conversation, to re-center our bodies in the explorations of borders, live art, community, and resistance.
Two sessions will run throughout the day to feed into these reflections. First, a Dance + Embodied Movement workshop with Camille Barton where we will process feelings gathered in our bodies throughout the pandemic and use them to build, futures together.
The second session will be a Reading Karaoke led by Youngsook Choi where we will experiment with communal reading as a site of radical joy, collective un/learning, and solidarity building, lifting threads from our second e-journal Rallying the Commons. The session will include participation from the e-journal contributing artists Helena Walsh, Harun Morrison and Ximena Alarcón-Diaz.
The day will end with a special screening of It is impossible to say everything here so I leave you with this, a performance to camera by SERAFINE1369 which we commissioned last year.
The second session will be live-streamed via HowlRound Theatre Commons, and you can access it here: https://howlround.com/
