Neutral mask
Embodied Imagination

workshop description

Neutral mask

The use of masks has been part of collective rituals since time immemorial. We find them in very diverse and distant ancestral traditions. They take us back to the origins of performance and therefore to the deepest roots of theater.

The neutral mask initiates us into stage play, allowing us to discover the maximum expressive breadth of our body and our imagination.

This work allows us to develop awareness of our body in movement and in dialogue with our own poetic world, in the search for a greater state of presence.

The neutral mask is an invitation to live in the present moment and summon in our body the great movement or mystery that animates the world.

We will work with masks by Alfredo Iriarte.
