Co-presented by
Led by contemporary Hong Kong artists, the “Body Encounters” workshops will inspire participants to seek new ways to approach their writing as they use their bodies to interact with the spaces that surround them.
Triggering new senses within the participants, the workshop will begin with a series of movement exercises that will explore the dynamics of different bodies in space. Creative writing exercises will be introduced between sessions to help participants reshape their understanding of situated bodies, and activate the participants' imaginations towards creative language.
Emerging local Chinese writers will also attend the sessions and publish their workshop-inspired literary works on Spicy Fish Cultural Production Limited’s online platform.
