Dedicated to healthy dances.
Consensual Landscapes is a movement laboratory shared for exercising embodied consent towards a body without boundaries. The research is characterized by its values and critique of notions around autonomy and orientation, perceptions that arrived as a heritage and imprisoned the self in a trapped past. Invited practitioners are welcome to follow a series of bodily tasks to attune to a corporeal consciousness, as a sequel of a healing practice.
The artist uses the term consent here to communicate with others, as a form of reconciliation. An attempt to come together, to engage in dialogue and exchange, with the intent of restoring harmonic compositions. As a mutable practice, a self’s perception of “now” could offer a warm-up of one’s behavior before transmission. From there, attention is given to the process of synchronicity between the addresser and the receiver, the receiver and the receptive matter. While unfolding in an encounter, this event creates a unified dance in which the synthesis of information becomes a shared responsibility. Regardless of the feedback on the processed information, the trainer wishes to facilitate a space of awareness of its impact and tools to deal with it.
The framework is echoed by different tools and philosophies drawn from the Chinese martial art, Tai Chi Chuan, and the spiritual master, Eckhart Tolle.
