Creative Lab
MUSIC/DANCE IMPROVISATION / Solène Weinachter & Jer Reid
During 8 days we explored many aspects of improvised music / dance. There is no 'and' in the title because our interest is in blurring the boundaries between music and dance. The music and the body exists with an equal weight. To make a single event. We explored the physicality of sound and the music inherent in movement and how both exist in the room. What is similar and what is different make an endless dialogue.
Players: Nerea, Iraya, Jer, Katrina, Carolina, Solène, Nina, Rafe, Dee, Monika

Collective Endeavours started with the meeting of Jer and Solène in 2010. Their collaboration is based in their joint desire to explore each other's art form in ways that create an equal impact on their pieces. Their work encompasses set pieces (Cairngorm Snow and Fracking) as well as improvised performances (Around Titles). They have performed them in a wide range of contexts, to all kind of audiences around the UK and Europe.

Artist in Residence
NAME IT / Nerea Gurrutxaga
During this residency I am researching ways to expand and improve my ways of moving, by focusing in different ideas for movement. As well as paying attention to different emotional and sensorial states that I am going through as consequence of the movement research. I am also looking at ways to share a practice within a performance context. In the sharing, I aim to share in various ways, some more exactly than others, ideas that I am working on. All, within a structure, that reflects and aims to share what I am discovering is my personal need, the one that derives from the challenge of working alone,(working in relationship with myself) to build connections with people, spaces, bodies, objects etc.

Performance Opportunity
NUCLEAR JELLY / Fenella Gabrysch + Sculpture & Environmental Art Students
The piece is an improvised collaboration through music, movement and costume. Based around narratives formulated from the life cycles of Aurelia Aurita jellyfish and nuclear power stations, the exploration seeks to test the reactive relationships between musicians and movers.
As a group we are currently Sculpture and Environmental Art students at the Glasgow School of Art and are based in Glasgow. Our interests vary to encompass various mediums including dance, movement, costume, music/sound; whilst extending to further realms of ceramics, film, video, narratives, characters and beyond within our own personal practice. As a group we have previously shown in Project Space 2 in the Art School in January 2016
Performers: Lola Morgan, Harriet Gould, Aphra Pilkington, Fenella Gabrysch
Musicians: Iain McCall, Danny Paganimous
