Sleeping under the stars in Brussels | 2013
Niches Urbaines - Sleeping under the stars in Brussels
Do we ever pause and stand still on the street? Do we rest on it? Have we ever slept on it?
------------------------------------
CALL FOR SLEEPERS
------------------------------------
Niches Urbaines <<< invites you to undergo a one-night-sleeping-experience in a public space in Brussels.
From the 30th of April until the 1rst of May 2013
This collective performance invites to imagine the urban space as a nature welcoming us to sleep … under the stars.
We invite 100 people to come and sleep with their sleeping bags in a public space in Brussels.
The performance will be guided by a score, assuring that our collective sleeping body will grow and move in space progressively …
Open to everybody registrated:
If you are interested to join this adventure, please inscribe via email to nichesurbaines@gmail.com

WORKSHOP
----------------------
The choreographic research for this collective performance is nourished by what we will elaborate during a workshop end of April:
“Bodies in suspension in urban space”, 22-26 April 2013
This workshop focuses on the positioning of the body in space as “active rest”, understood here as seeking a position which uses the space to be supported, worn, stretched, suspended, held .
Also open to everybody registrated, more info on:

Looking forward to meeting you!
