Three by Three

A spiritual awakening established the seaside village of Findhorn as a thriving and internationally renowned community. This July, it provides the setting for a another flourishing: 3x3, an exclusive series of interdisciplinary workshops developed by Bodysurf Scotland and Glasgow’s Dance House.

“Both Dance House and Bodysurf Scotland are engaged in promoting performances and training of cutting-edge relevance,” says Satya Dunning of Dance House. The three workshops, being held over nine days at the Foundation’s Universal Hall, push these boundaries

Jonathon Burrows and collaborator, composer Matteo Fargion, will discuss and explore the choreographic and compositional process and perform the UK premiere of ‘Cheap Lecture’ – “a talk in the form of a musical performance”.

Dancer Eva Karczag and installation artist Chris Crickmay will use an improvisational approach; the third workshop is led by the Gravity Interdisciplinary Dance/Performance Company- Jess Curtis, Claire Cunningham and Maria Scaroni. Cunningham, a Creative Scotland Award winner, will perform ‘Evolution’.

Dunning is excited that these workshops have a “strong team of first class and highly respected international artists, who are pushing the boundary of dance and performance and experimental work.

“Findhorn boasts a fantastic rural and coastal setting and friendly relaxed environment” she says. “The Findhorn Foundation community is conducive to study. It’s an opportunity to step outside your usual working and living environment, allowing nature to fuel creativity.”
