About the event
In this workshop, participants are invited to explore a safe creative space, their body, psyche, memories with Muna and Irene. We will bring into deep focus the passing of time and shifts in emotional states coming from improvisational movement. We will warm up the body to enliven the flow of qi or energy, as individuals, with a partner, and as a collective group. With guided imagery we will create one’s own story from memory and history. This workshop relates to Muna’s creation Me, You, Then, Now, to be performed in the SIFA festival on May 27.
About the organizer
SIFA 2023: THE ANATOMY OF PERFORMANCE - SOME PEOPLE
This year's title engages with the idea that the human experience exists on a spectrum. We are the sum of all the narratives that chapter and alter our lives; each trial and transformation, what our ancestors and communities have had to struggle through, our experiences as children and adults, things inherited and circumstances imposed on our lives shape how we move through life and experience the world.
When we encounter performance, we witness perspectives we can relate to, or that differ from our own, maybe even challenge our held beliefs, yet when we agree to remain in the performance space together, our personal worldview expands as we take in another’s.
Each SIFA edition features three tracks of curated offerings: CREATION, Life Profusion and SIFA X.
Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA) returns from 19 May to 4 June 2023 with the theme The Anatomy of Performance - Some People.
