Make plans for Awakening InterArts: We, The Trees, The Atmosphere with Diane Butler happening Sept 26 – 28 at Strawberry Creek Park, Berkeley and the Bear Valley Visitor Center & Dance Palace Main Hall in Point Reyes!
This 10-hour AWAKENING INTERARTS: WE, THE TREES, THE ATMOSPHERE workshop for dance/movement, theater, music and architecture/environmental design students and practitioners is inspired by two principles from biodiversity preservation.
One is that trees and plants are the lungs of the world, which maintain the air that we and other living creatures breathe.
Another is the part-to-whole connection of the ‘small world, micro-cosmos’ of the human body with the ‘large world, macro-cosmos’.
Diane will guide practice in outdoor sites based on daily life postures and solo movement improvisation to explore the diverse qualities of our physical roots, trunk and limbs.
We will then create small group art constellations; transforming in relation to the pulse of life in the surrounding ecosystem as a dialogue of we, the trees, and the atmosphere.
