Norico Mazda Kura | Tanzwerkstatt Cottbus | June 13 – 19, 2023

‘You are you, but you are also me.’ That is the topic of my work. Through the medium of the body, I have tried to create a ‘dialogue beyond dialogue’ that transcends the boundary between the moment, me and you. In June, I performed four participatory, improvised live performances in Cottbus, in which I used movement, fabric, sound, voice, dance and drawing. Each time there were many new discoveries.

On the last day, I gave a 3-4 hour workshop for the students of the Department of Architecture at the University of Brandenburg. In the first half of the workshop I gave my own solo performance and gradually involved the participants by giving them paper, touching them, using my voice and wrapping them with fabric, and in the second half they started to move more actively with the colours and the fabric. In the end, they were able to actively participate in the work and experience a new dialogue that went one step further.
