Undressing the Somatic Politics of Touch & Attention | Somatic Costume Dressing Room w. Sally E Dean

🌟 The Somatic Costume Dressing Room (Talk & Performance)
Join us for an enlightening session titled Undressing the Somatic Politics of Touch and Attention. In today's visually dominated culture, this experience invites you to move beyond mere observation and explore healing through touch and intimacy.

💫 This event proposes that costumes hold transformative power, functioning as political instruments that foster connection and engagement. As we tread into this liminal space, the process of dressing up becomes a choreography that explores how our bodies interact with materials intimately.

🎭 Here, costumes are not just garments but dynamic elements tailored in real-time to resonate with the wearer's unique psychophysical needs. Witness one person undergo a dedicated dressing ritual, showcasing how costume is collaboratively shaped through body movement and touch, creating an immersive experience for both participants and the audience.

👗 This engaging inquiry will shift perspectives on how we attend to our surroundings and bodies, reshaping our connection with them.
