Gender is moving on a spectrum. Its experience and expression is different for everyone but often we do not notice in which way we and the people around us partake in this societal construct. In this piece the performer moves along a line representing the movement between female and male, while reciting a text outlining the basic idea of sex, gender and gender expression, trying to give the audience a first glimpse.

Theory and Practice of the Performing Body

Studio INTERACT | BA Major Art Teaching module | Interaction/Performance supervised by: Italo Zuffi (Studio Leader) Aim of this Studio is to explore the expressive and narrative potentials of the body, and employ it as direct work tool to design and implement projects involving a live engagement. The process we will follow is partly based on a pre-defined structure dealing with both physical and analytical work, and partly meant to allow self-generative extensions in relation to the dynamics and outcomes we will create. Inner listening – that is, the capability to define the atmospheric qualities of our state of presence and connection. We will often refer to it as a way by means of which to closely observe and assess our works, from concept to execution.
