Ensayar el Cuerpo Común [rehearsing the common body]

This event opened the Arts and Disability residency “Sintomatologías: aprendizajes espásticos” hosted by Elena Pous at the Cultural Center Matadero Madrid. A Series of workshops and reading/creative engagements around questions of illness, disability and politics.

Co-designed and co-facilitated with Patricia Carmona (NODUAL), through somatic, movement, visual and performative tools, we rehearsed many ways of making a collective body of concerns out of the isolated, patient, and individual versions of self proposed by the medical model of illness and disability.
