Art x Embodiment: creativity at home in the body
Join Circling Studios and artists Austen Bohmer, Marilyn Mitchell, and Veronica Velasquez for a reflective afternoon considering the embodied self as the site of creativity.
Your RSVP includes:
🎤 Artist panel discussion and Q&A
🕺 The Vessel, a 45-minute movement practice
✂️ Hands-on artmaking, all supplies provided
🫖 Light refreshments
📚 Yearlong Circling subscription
The day begins as we listen in on a dynamic conversation among these artists working across disciplines and engaging their bodies through creative practice as well as considering physical experiences more broadly in their personal and professional lives.
Next, The Vessel is a new movement practice for creatives by Austen Bohmer. Drawing inspiration from Butoh, yoga, Jungian Dreamwork, and dancefloors around the world, The Vessel helps you quiet your mind and connect to your body. This is where your creative impulse comes alive.
Finally, create something with your hands. Guided by the Circling team, wrap up the day with a reflective artmaking opportunity and connect what you've learned to your own creative practice.
You’ll leave having moved your body, practiced stillness, created with your hands, and engaged in reflection and conversation with fellow artists. We hope you walk away feeling grounded, connected, inspired, and ready to integrate these experiences into the next steps of your artistic path.
Doors open at 1:30pm.
💥 An 18+ event. Please dress in clothing you can move comfortably in and bring an exercise mat if you have one; we will have a few extras available if needed.
