Encounters is a multi-disciplined laboratory series that fosters the investigation, research and experimentation of art forms and challenges conventions of practice, test new pathways and approaches. Derived from a place of curiosity to invade categorisation, this creative laboratory will use dance movement as the canvas to interlink a physical exploration and develop a narrative series of experimentation through human encounters.

​

The carefully curated encounters will bring together dancers and artists from a range of disciplines who may have never worked with the human body and vice-versa. The lab is catered for the risk-taker and the curious who have a keenness to push boundaries and cross-pollinate art forms. Encounters aims to discover and possibly reinvent approaches to create choreography and how we visualise it as well as exploring how body movement can propel other media.

​

We will celebrate failures as part of the journey and reflect upon the world exchange, connect and respond.

​

Inspired by the changing landscape of dance and art, here are some themes and concepts we propose to investigate.

Re-thinking and expanding the concept of mobility

Leveraging Technologies

The art of borderless performance

Upcoming Encounters dates for summer and Autumn 2023 will be confirmed soon.
