Moved

movement and choreography creative workshop

For more than 20 years, Janusz Orlik has been consistently developing his movement and choreographic practice – a practice of seeking physical, visual and sonic representations of emotional and mental states that are rather difficult to describe in words.

The goal of the creative workshop is to provoke an activity in collaborative creation and practice of movement and to encourage participants to find their own creative potential. The work focuses on releasing the creative potential of the participants using alternative tools to create movement as well as choreographic and improvisational practices that increase the ability to build trust, body awareness, to help generate and compose movement.

The aim of the workshop is to show dance as a tool of expression and non-verbal communication accessible to everyone, not as a purely technical form, dedicated only to professionals, and to emphasize the purely human and emotional aspect of dance in the artistic work of Janusz Orlik. Workshop focuses not so much on precision and perfection as on building a community in mutual relations and communication within a group as well as enriching the knowledge, abilities and movement skills of the participants, through creation, observation of collaborative activities and building constructive feedback.

The “Moved” workshop was initiated in 2018 as part of a creative scholarship granted by The Minister of Culture and National Heritage.
