About This Event

The team has been exploring – through practice – a collective embodiment practice in public spaces in the city, that can be carried into one’s day-to-day, in other spaces of encountering more bodies. 

The approach of the practice is body-centred, inspired by Resmaa Menakem’s book My Grandmother’s Hands, and deeply nourished and supported by conversations with Lee Su-Feh and her Scores for Dancing Across Distances.

In this event, Ren Xin, the project lead, will share about the (messy) process that unfolded as the project took its first step in this year’s chapter.
