Mayfield Brooks
This workshop, "Improvising While Black/IWB," uses voice/body, utterance and tremors, somatics, contemporary dance, contact improvisation, and practices from mayfield's RUPTURE and ParLAY Scores. To ParLAY the dance we improvise playfully while raising the stakes of our vulnerability to each other. RUPTURE disrupts societal and architectural structures like white supremacy and monuments by dancing in and around such spaces, interrupting a dance phrase or series of gestures to engage with surprise, risk and truth-telling.
This event is presented by the Department of World Arts & Cultures/Dance.
