CLUB BED
DESCRIPTION
Club Bed: Speculating from a sick horizontality. This workshop approaches the sick, horizontal, pained body-mind as a position of imagination and speculation. The workshop will combine dance, somatic exercises, and crip theory text to explore sick positionality and world-building. In this workshop the sick body is a horizon line to reimagine queer crip club space, sociality, and sensation. Because... "When you are so often lying down, you are also so often looking up." (Boyer, The Undying)
ABOUT THE FACILIATOR
Alx Velozo is a trans and disabled sculptor, educator, and performance artist raised in North Florida: occupied Timucua land, currently residing in Baltimore, Maryland: occupied Pascataway land. Their installations and performances combine cultural imaginations of illness, touch, kink, the medical industrial complex, and kinesthetic learning models. They explore this research through mold-making processes, movement and object-based performances, and facilitation.
