This workshop, run by Paxton Ricketts, is a sincere but light-hearted look at the world of instant composition. A world with conventions but without rules. We will use improvisation to make choices, find new listening methods, and create connections. Developing the tools necessary to carry with us in that world and refining our understanding of how we approach ideas.

Tracing Movement screening

Flux Projects is proud to present Tracing Movement, a screening of seven short films exploring the intersection of mark marking and dance.

These ways of working, usually shown in separate contexts, are both fundamentally gestural and, as such, deeply kindred. Abstract art can be said to be the recorded outcome of movement, often intuitive, emotional and even musical. Dance, often thought of as transient and intangible, can also be perceived as a series of invisibly drawn shapes.

Join us for this one-off screening of seven short films by: M.Lohrum X Calvin Richardson, Caroline Denervaud, Daphne van de Velde, Olive Hardy X Lydia Walker, Megan Rooney, Heather Hansen and Jade Blackstock.

Doors open: 18:30

Event run time: 1hr (i.e. 19:00-20:00)
