SUMMARY:Kintsugi for Beginners
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an in-person Kintsugi Course! No experience necessary. All levels welcome.\n\n\nLearn the art of Kintsugi with artifact restoration expert Mami Takahashi. \nKintsugi is a traditional Japanese lacquer / Urushi art form in which gold is used to repair broken ceramics. Urushi is the natural resin collected from the lacquer tree. The practice of Kintsugi highlights the break rather than erasing it and emphasizes that the break is what makes ceramics more valuable. The beginner’s Kintsugi process focuses on understanding the basic technique of Kintsugi on a small porcelain plate or a small ceramic plate\, which will be provided by the instructor\, to understand the fundamentals of this process. \nHere is a quote about Kintsugi from Linda Muller\, a certified life coach: \n“Kintsugi is based on the philosophy that breakage and repair are something to celebrate – embracing flaws and imperfections creates a stronger and more beautiful piece of art. Using this as a metaphor for healing ourselves teaches us an important lesson: Sometimes in the process of repairing what feels broken\, we become more unique\, beautiful\, and resilient. Kintsugi can be a way to reframe personal challenges. Reminding us that we’re not a victim of our circumstances. Showing us that we can come out on the other side stronger.” \nAll materials\, including adhesives in the workshop\, will be food-safe. We will also use an artificial Urushi (the natural resin/glue collected from the lacquer tree) sap for this beginner’s class\, which is safe to touch without allergic reactions. \nIn the “Kintsugi for Beginners” workshop\, epoxy putty will be used in addition to the ceramic glue. These materials may make the students’ fingers sticky\, and some remnants of epoxy might also stay on their fingers for a few days. There will be finger covers for students to use\, but often\, that makes working with these materials a bit difficult. \nAbout the instructor: \nMami Takahashi is a Japanese multidisciplinary artist and a scholar working both in Chicago and Tokyo. She received her MFA in Contemporary Studio Practice from Portland State University in 2013 and earned a BFA in Japanese Painting from Joshibi University of Art and Design in Japan. For more details\, visit https://mamitakahashi.art/ \nWith ongoing artistic research\, practice\, and teaching\, Takahashi explores different approaches to actualize Japanese aesthetics to enhance cultural perspectives to many U.S. communities. Takahashi also aims to connect Japan and communities in Chicago by teaching traditional and modern art-making techniques.

SUMMARY:Butoh Dance Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Butoh dance training is an invaluable tool for dancers\, actors\, and creative people of all types.\n\n\nButoh dance training is an invaluable tool for dancers\, actors\, and creative people of all types. Sara leads you in exercises to expand your body physically and energetically through breath and meditation techniques\, vocal warm-ups\, Noguchi Taiso\, Qigong\, Daoyin\, visual imagery and improvisational scores. \nThis workshop lights on ideas of the transformative body and the importance of the lived moment\, in order to experience some essential concepts in Butoh. Experimenting with distortion in timing\, the uncanny\, and the grotesque\, we explore how presence and space can be activated on different temporalities. Applying these techniques can expand the vocabulary of embodied movement. This workshop encourages participants to find beauty in the horror of the grimace\, to transform ourselves from one state to another\, and move from deeply internal impulses to find more unique expressions in our outer movements. We will work with forms\, images\, and butoh fu from the lineage of Hijikata and Kazuo Ohno and students and descendants of these Butoh traditions. \nThere will be time for reflection using automatic writing and/or drawing exercises and short improvised showings to more fully integrate ideas into usable material for making strong choreographic and performance decisions. This is a supportive environment to start an individual and collective process of investigation through creative movement. We will open and expand our awareness\, move with our subtler senses\, create and witness our personal body language. \nSara Zalek (@01saratonin) is a transdisciplinary artist\, producer\, and curator. Rooted in physical investigations of transformation of trauma to resilience\, their work is intimate\, raw\, poetic. Zalek ignites dialog with the public using unexpected encounters; always with unknowns\, often with humor\, and with an intentional focus on the moment when the self is limitless potential.   \nZalek performs often in both live and online situations; The City of Chicago named them an Esteemed Artist in 2022. Elastic Arts Foundation awarded them a Curatorial Grant in 2020 for Hot Mess! A hybrid performance event.They were a Chicago Dancemakers Forum Lab Artist in 2015\, a 2017 3Arts Make a Wave Awardee\, and Ragdale Foundation Fellow. They have performed and curated performances at the Chicago Cultural Center\, High Concept Labs\, Elastic Arts\, Experimental Sound Studio\, Links Hall\, Lumpen Radio\, dfbrl8r\, SITE/less\, Urban Guild in Kyoto\, Japan\, and so many more. \nThrough Butoh Curious\, Zalek connects national and international teaching artists with Chicago art makers across genres in the independent and fringe arenas (including dance\, butoh\, physical theater\, experimental and improvisational music). They create opportunities for positive communication and arts integration using workshops\, performances\, and conversations about personal and collective bodies. Butoh Curious
