Discursive Practice

Dwelling Conversations

One to one conversation(s) around and about dance phrases in non-isolated places

Few words about the practice:
It is a conversation practice about and around dance phrases. The conversation takes place between me and you. On the one hand, through the practice, a conversation is explored as a place of dwelling together, a space where you and I meet in practice. It could happen through words, hesitations, silences and sometimes kneading dough or taking walks...Conversations as places that are unknown, that allow someone to get lost so as to be found again. As Rebecca Solnit writes “Stories that make the familiar strange again, like those that revealed the lost landscapes, lost cemeteries, lost species around my home…. Getting lost like that seems the beginning of finding your way or finding another way…”.
On the other hand, it formulates a way for me to listen and for you to share and vice versa, stories, memories, preconceptions, histories around the simple but for me ambiguous question “how is a dance phrase for you?”.
