A Study on Why We Move

A new collaboration between Shira Kagan-Shafman and Leandria Lott exploring the question ‘why do we move?’ Drawing from their ongoing collaborations between music and dance both artists provoke a desire to understand what in you moves me? Their work seeks to answer this question, by highlighting the trust needed to move. Trust in the body, in the witnesses and each other.
