Social Sculpture: Huddling, Then and Now
a movement workshop with Cassils
This movement-based workshop invites participants into an embodied exploration of connection through performance. We will begin with guided warm-ups and short choreographic exercises to create living sculptures that personify the conditions under which we live.
​
Together, we will read and discuss Ethan Philbrick’s reflection on Simone Forti’s Huddle (1968), a text from which this workshop takes its title, considering how the body operates as both material and social form. The session will culminate in a collective performance of Forti’s Huddle, allowing participants to embody the learnings and imparted in the text.
Through movement, reading, and collaboration, the workshop proposes the body not only as material for performance, but an active site of relationality, politics and possibility.
