Workshop: 6 days investigating the specific areas of space and words with Julyen Hamilton & Billie Hanne.

In space resounds what emanates from us as we make dance and words. Space is a central area of obsession in the dancer’s work and concerns both geometrical and emotional powers as a language of sensitivity and communication. This workshop deals with poetry and dance produced in a performing space.
