TBA:14 WORKSHOP
Meryem Jazouli
Morocco-based choreographer Meryem Jazouli offers a workshop for contemporary dancers that proposes shared time and space to discover the realm where the poetic and vulnerable coincide. The class will start off with a warmup to activate the senses, followed by a dance Jazouli will share that each person will experience and personalize while imparting it with a unique meaning.
This event is part of the TBA Festival Flight: Gender, Culture, & Experiments with Tradition, which reflects a range of work by artists from diverse disciplines who rigorously examine the intersections of history, culture, language, gender, and aesthetic form, while experimenting with musical, vocal, and choreographic concepts and traditions that both exude and transcend particularities of time and place.
About Festival Flights: Festival Flights highlight artistic, political, or cultural connections among various performances, exhibitions, late-night shows, workshops, screenings, TBA Conversations, Field Guide sessions, and more. Think of a Flight as a thematic tasting--try one or two events or make time for an immersive experience across a range of related happenings.
About Workshops: Festival workshops are a rare opportunity for Portlanders and visitors alike to work with TBA artists from around the world. Advance registration is required for all workshops; call the TBA Central Box Office at 503.224.PICA to register.
