THIS WORKSHOP WILL BE IN GRANER, FÀBRICA DE CREACIÓ (c. Jane Adams, 14-16, Barcelona)
Open to all levels

Her recent work as a choreographer revolves around reflection on the new technologies and their influence on the perception of our own bodies. The impact of the digital age on our sense of connection between body and mind and/or their alienation from each other, on our perception of time and space and on our presence or ability to live in the present, are concepts which Núria Guiu explores through movement.

The workshop will be divided into two parts: a warm-up class where we will focus on becoming aware of the different parts of the body through the centre and respiration, and a second part where we will work with concepts and physical guidelines developed for the creation of Login, the piece being presented at the festival.

Núria Guiu graduated from the Institut del Teatre in Barcelona and was part of the young company IT Dansa. As a dancer she has worked with various companies such as the Batsheva Dance Company (IL), Carte Blanche Dance Company (NO), La Veronal (SP), Jasmin Vardimon (UK), Andersson Dance (SE), Arouni Dance (NO) and Kobalt Works (BE).
