CHERCHEZ LA FEMME
Exploring Femininity
Empfindest Du Dich als weiblich? Bist du eine Frau? Bist Du Dir da manchmal nicht so sicher oder fragst Dich, was das überhaupt bedeutet? Was das für Dich bedeutet?
Wunderbar, dann bist Du bei uns richtig. Das Weibliche – ein mythenumwobener Ort, ein verehrtes, umschmeicheltes und bekämpftes Sein.
Wo verortest Du Deine Femininität? Im Körper, in einer Körperlichkeit, in Körperregionen? Wie drückst Du sie aus? In einer Haltung, in Bewegung, in einem Gefühl? In Deinem Denken, Deiner Sprache, Deiner Sexualität, Deinen Beziehungen oder einer Beziehungsform?
What images and fantasies do you have of femininity? What do you love about being female, what do you quarrel with, what obstructs you? What do you mean by femininity? Do you rate femininity? How do you connect your femininity with the world? Does it influence your desire? Do you find femininity attractive?
We search for and find, explore and experience ourselves within the parameters of femininity.
In a room with other women we explore femininity. We will feel, think, speak, and play womanhood. We will feel out our desires, we will uncover, dismiss, and embody identities. We will explore both facets of your personality and the potentials of our group.
We work with the methods from sexological bodywork, massage, and contact improvisation and employ elements of formation and play. Archetypes and everyday personas will lead us to discard clichés or to manifest ourselves into genuine heroines. As a participant, you are warmly invited to join us in the co-construction of the workshop. The framework of the program will be made whole by the interests, knowledge, and experiences of the group.
The goals of the workshop are to feel satisfyingly and wholly embodied, to call into question and widen both your own and others’ notions of womanhood, and to expand your own choices within womanhood.
Intended for all that identify as female.
