This workshop dives into improvisation through body, land, memory, and sensation — exploring the tender chaos of being human. Expect emotional depth, playful curiosity, and a raw, real-time connection to the now.
Where: Tictac Art Centre, Brussels, Belgium
When: November 10 – 14 from 10:00 – 13:00
The artist sees light in all eyes and has skin like paper, dissolvable to transparency. She loves herself like plants love water, undeniably. She believes in her goodness and her ability to converse, somehow with what our bones are always whispering. She’s in your tears, beautiful and loud, giggling.
This workshop will be based in improvisation and will explore our bodies, the land, and where their boundaries blur. We will delve into our emotional beings, our memories, our fantasies, our ‘what ifs’ and our sensations that both hold us and warp our sense of self; all as a means to be completely in the now. We each have oceans inside of us, when they meet we have the capacity to flood each other. Can we drown ourselves from the inside out? In this workshop we will often return to notions and patterns of nature, the yearnings of ‘what if’s’ and the sensations of memory; through which will create a collective language to explore. We will sweat, we will soften, we will laugh. I wish to share my practices, and hopefully you can share yours too.
Celia Hext’s biography:
Celia Hext is from Aotearoa (New Zealand). Her emotional capacity, to love, and thrash, and giggle, and bleed is what distinguishes her as an artist and as a human. Celia makes work about us, our tomfoolery, our joy and our relationships to the land we are caretakers of. She is curious about life and our dance with it.
Celia was 1 of 24 artists from around the world invited to perform in David Zambrano’s project Silo Solo Solam
