Dancing Babies _ Lucia Nicolussi Perego
Workshop aimed at expecting women, mothers and newborns
The three-year project NDT 2.0 Female Animal Bestiary sees twelve artists and collectives focus on the practices and theories of the question of the Feminine | Animal to redesign an interpretative cartography of contemporary languages, in a reshaping action of performative grammar.
After Gloria Dorliguzzo with ✧ DAY OF WRATH to April from Valentina Barbarini with ✧ IPHIGENIA IN AULIDE, the ✧ DANCING BABIES workshop has been active since June, curated by the dancer and choreographer Lucia Nicolussi Perego and aimed at expectant women, starting from the thirtieth week of gestation.
Expectant mothers and their newborns are invited to experience the possibility of an unprecedented encounter, intimate and profound, led by an expert in the theory of’embodiment applied to prenatal.
PHASE #1
In the first phase of the workshop, expectant women will be able to experience a 'time' of listening, a suspended and protected place where you can view, imagine, play, dialogue with your child through movement-breath-relationship, poetic and vital act of rare depth.
Work represents an opportunity for the mother to become aware of the child's growth within her body, seeing him transform, feeling and experiencing the great adaptations of its forms in relation to the growth of the child.
PHASE #2
In the second phase of the laboratory we will experiment, within the mother-newborn relationship, the freedom of an encounter that leaves room for the child's movement, at play with the mother's body and the environment.
The music, the lights, the materials present will be both stimuli and cognitive support, 'breathing lungs’ to create an embodiment between mother, son and place.
Subject to the consent of the participants, the lab (both in the phase 1, both in the phase 2) it will be documented through video recordings and subsequently transcribed into visual sequences presented in public form.
