The seventh and last task allows the performers to abandon the concept, leave the solo work and find the ending of the piece together in improvisation. \n\tThe piece aims to decolonize the bodies of the performers, free them from the meanings imposed on them and allow them to experience themselves differently. The tasks require concentration, stamina, neutrality without self-expression and treat the body as pure physical machine.\n\tThe initial 3-day workshop is for maximum of 45 people of which usually 11-15 continue the practice for another 2-3 days. The rehearsal process culminates in an open-end public performance of the piece in a gallery\/museum setting.","space":"10x10 metres, wooden floor or dance floor mat","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/137120912","audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"Yasen Ivaylov","surname":"Vasilev","email":"vassilev.yassen@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"8806056680","address":"58 Tzar Ivan Asen II","city":"Sofia","nacionality":"Bulgarian","country_id":"23","birthdate":"1988-05-05T21:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1988-05-05T21:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+359887412393","web":"instagram: @yasenvasilev"}
