SUMMARY:What Is Queer Performance? Mariana Valencia Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Queer theory meets the queer body in these workshops. This smattering of queer artists bridges queer writing practices with queer bodybased practices. Drawing upon the varied performative interests and inspirations of the teaching artists\, the workshops touch upon text\, sound\, witchcraft\, impulse\, free association\, and movement. \nThese workshops are for folks with none to a lot of performance experience. Come see what inspirations and mini-spectacles are always-already burgeoning in your queer bodies. \nWorkshops are $10 each\, all money goes to support the teacher and the space. Drop-in or take all of them. Space is very limited\, so pre-registration strongly encouraged. Please send an email with your name and a quick tidbit about yourself to whatisqueerperformance@gmail.com. Curated by Li Cata. \nMARIANA VALENCIA / THURS JUNE 12TH / 11A – 1P \n \n\n“on the floor” is an improvisation. together we will define the space we make. i will present items in a room: bodies\, objects\, books\, images\, clothes\, and sound. we will shape and arrange them and arrange ourselves among them. this is an improvisation\, this is what happens when we think together; playfulness is at hand\, imagination is at hand . spatio-temporal movement is at hand and on the floor. \nBIO\n\nMariana is a dance artist who makes installations\, garments and a zine called Rhinoceros Event.\nMariana travels for research\, she’s been to Belize\, Mexico\, Guatemala and Denmark. Mariana has a BA from Hampshire College in dance and ethnography\, she is based in New York since 2006 and works a day job at The Co-op School in Bed-Stuy\, Brooklyn.\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
