Twelve Baltic artists from circus and related art fields gathered in Kaunas from 10-12 of June to participate in an intensive 3-day workshop dedicated to collective creation. The workshop was organised and hosted by the International circus festival “Cirkuliacija” and it took place in the recently opened contemporary circus centre in Kaunas \u2013 “Cirko sapiens”<\/strong>. The event included in the Grassroot network’s<\/strong> programme that is coordinated by R\u012bgas cirks.<\/p>\n

The workshop “Uncomfortable places” was led by Finnish circus artist Inka Pehkonen<\/strong> (Sisus company<\/em>), who arranged the creative tasks to take the artists out of their comfort zones. Various improvisation techniques were involved –\u00a0 falling, exploring touch, dancing and moving with eyes closed, leading each other in movement –\u00a0 to encourage trusting the partner and involved artists in pair and group work. Workshop was finalised by an exciting site specific performance in one of the remote districts of Kaunas with an audience from one house. The inhabitants could regard the performance in the yard from their balconies, therefore the title “Performance for the balconies”.<\/p>\n

Most of the involved artists expressed great enthusiasm and gratitude for the experience exchange that boiled both during the workshop.<\/p>\n
