ALGHERO DANCE AND LANDSCAPE
Dance Workshop in Nature
DANCE AND LANDSCAPE is a dance workshop played entirely in nature in the context of the Porto Conte Regional Natural Park in Sardinia (IT).
The workshop is focused on the development of expressiveness and creativity, in total immersion in the natural landscape, which becomes an integral part of the choreographic composition process.
DANCE AND LANDSCAPE was conceived through a cycle of workshops that Senza Confini Di Pelle has been conducting since 2016 on the theme of sensory perception in direct relationship with nature. The first study, DANCE AND PERCEPTION, took place on the island of Stromboli focusing the work on the 4 elements (Water, Air, Earth and Fire). Subsequently, the work concentrated on the osmotic relationship with the landscape by creating the DANCE AND LANDSCAPE workshop in the Asinara National Park.
The 3-day workshop, from 19 to 21 of August 2021, allows you to get in touch with the elements of nature in a unique and suggestive way: the wind, the sea, the rock, the vegetation and the fauna create the ground ideal for the proposed work.
Starting from sensory perception, the influence of natural elements on the bdoy and its movement is investigated which, by incorporating them, comes to dance in osmosis with the environment.
During the workshop, dance, theater, yoga techniques are used, as well as original methodologies developed during the performance practice of Senza Confini Di Pelle.
The workshop is hosted by the sand, the sea and the landscape of the park, to experiment with directions, dynamics, strength and rhythm of movement in relation to natural elements. The multiple sounds, the changing play of color, the diversity of the shadows, the changes in temperature, the scents of the vegetation, are the frame of this experience that wants to convey a deep awareness to listen and respect nature in all its fragility and wonders.
CONTEXT
The workshop offers the opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the natural environment through the combination of dance and landscape in the evocative and exclusive setting of the territory of the north-west area of Sardinia belonging to the municipalities of Alghero and Sassari which includes the protected areas of the Regional Natural Park of Porto Conte and Capo Caccia. These will be the areas that will host the workshop, unique contexts in which biodiversity manifests itself with a wealth of unspoiled, varied and evocative landscapes, fauna and flora.
