Lush blast follows the notion of wilderness as a tool to practice letting go of control and celebrating life’s richness. The performative walk guides the attention from the subtleties of biological processes to the orchestration of various bodies. Along the way, stories, songs, and exercises to guide the attention, and perception and fuel the imagination will be shared. In the process, the senses are drawn to the minor movements, interconnections, and the impulses of wilderness of the surroundings. The narration will be weaved in a hybrid way, mixing both live performance, archived materials, and live sound installation. Can dance mend our land ties, promoting an alternative relationship with the environment intimately imbricated with our bodies?
Alica Minar and Dorota Michalak started the development of this Performative Walk format within residencies at HELLERAU in Dresden.
