Aniela Piasecka is a Dance Base Associate Artist

Massive Thanks

Aniela Piasecka

Aniela will invite several Edinburgh based artists and writers to respond via imaginary ekphrasis to prompts composed in advance of the residency articulated around the central question 'What is dance?'.

Aniela's movement research will bounce off these responses to create sketches for a new choreographic work in collaboration with the invited participants.

Studio days will be split between further discussions with the invited participants and Aniela's own solo explorations.

The aim is to create a mise-en-abyme of collaboration, a never-ending structure of question-response. Performance and written outcomes are envisaged.

Company Class | Tuesday 4 June | 10.00 – 11.30

Aniela will lead a company class based on the methods of collaboration she has composed before and during the residency period. Dancers can expect to respond via dance to written prompts by the invited participants of Aniela's residency.

Company Showing | Friday 7 June | 16.00
