This summer, we’ll all be fish. The children in the summer cabin will become a huge school of fish. Fish without a sea and with just one place to swim: in the museum.
We need three things to dance: body, space and time. What happens when we interplay these three elements?
Swimming suddenly becomes a way of dancing.
We share a space. We have a museum. We walk around the museum; we dance around the museum. We guide, follow and seek a common respite. How do we choose which direction to go in? Who chooses the direction of our route? If we all stop, will we keep dancing?
We are inviting children aged 6 to 12 to dive through the depths of this ocean along with Baiven. Just like every year, the CA2M Museum is scheduling this activity with the goal of creating a space where artists and creators can share their inquiries with the participants. This time, the sessions will revolve around the body, dance and groupwork.
The workshop will be taught by Alba Sáenz-López Aumente and Mar Sáenz-López Aumente. They are dancers, choreographers, sisters, cultural mediators and the founders of the Baiven collective, a group that uses dance to foster the horizontal exchange of experiences, perspectives, knowledge and critical thinking.
They develop activities that explore the performing arts and education. They seek engagement and interaction with communities and territories and try to expand art’s professional arena by creating accessible, diverse spaces where anyone can find a place, regardless of their situation, body and mind.
CAPACITY: 12 PEOPLE.
