Why not take time to think about familiar communication?

In this program we use different ways than usual to re-examine the words we normally use and the feelings we normally have without thinking, the everyday conversation with friends and family. With just a bit of tweaking, you might discover a side to somebody that neither they nor you yourself have seen before. Through two such workshops created by artists, we attempt to unravel what up to now has been the norm.

“The dance behind the eyelids”

Even though we hear the same words, the image these words bring to mind will differ from person to person. While enjoying the variations generated by this difference, we try to create a dance using only words.
