Space in Between

Workshop series guided by Olivia Nava Igual

Kunstbethanien Quartier—Studio 2
Berlin, 2022-2023

Space in between consists of a series of workshops transitioning between movement exploration, happening and interactive installation. Through different dance exercises, participants aim to expand their movement vocabulary, rhythm and coordination.

The scenic element consisted of threads that the participants used to generate dynamics between them, in pairs and then collectively, creating a single organism, and making the interdependence between them visible.

As a dance tool, threads enable individuals to create and find new movement patterns beyond the usual range. Immersing themselves in this visual representation allows them to forget they’re dancing, freeing them to fully develop their creativity.
