This artistic-research exploration starts with a somatic critique of opposing stillness to movement, body to cognition, and equilibrium to instability. Centering on dizziness and in/stability, we aim to reveal these states in a different light, offering the possibility of new perspectives. In/stability indicates a situation in which the possibilities of reality can no longer be grasped or navigated in a habitual manner. However, states of in/stability also present momentum for change and transformation. By introducing the fields of somaesthetics and somatic (dance) practices, such as Feldenkrais or ballet, the lab proposes a sensory and somatic approach to a different and enriched cognition and conceptualization with/in/stability.
The lab’s somatic movement proposition focuses on the vestibular sense, which is our sense of balance, gravity, and orientation, and will invite participants to guided movement sessions. No prior experience is necessary, and all bodies and abilities are welcome.
