Migrant Bodies develops a shared international research, focusing on identifying, developing and testing new and relevant actions for the inclusion of
refugees and migrants with dance and movement based initiatives. The research brings together dance artists in Italy, Austria, Croatia and France, in dialogue with writers, filmmakers,
organizations and associations which assist refugees, educational institutions, universities, members of the partner organizations, experts and citizens. Inclusive dance practices are
being conceived and held for migrants and refugees within the communities they live in, enabling project participants to gain new skills and enrich their professional life, embracing new
opportunities in working with migrants. Migrants and refugees are invited in dance classes, to events and performances, experiencing being part of a collective, and live a common
experience with citizens, in theatres and artistic contexts.
Some activities involve children of second/third generations of migrants with the dance artists to create, the Moving Borders walks: guided tours reflecting their view point of the cities
they live in. The walks are public events where citizens, migrant and refugees discover together the cities from new perspectives. Parallel to the dance activities and Moving Borders
walks, stories of migrants are collected with audiovisual supports. They become part of an artistic exhibition/installation that accompanies the presentations of the project, and its
results, at festivals and events, to promote respect and understanding for diversity, giving EU citizens the opportunity to discover, to learn and to understand the values and cultures of
refugees/migrants and rediscover and enriching their own. A final international symposium and an online publication collect the documentation and the best and new practices identified. It
supports the dissemination of the outcomes of the project across fields and territories beyond the life of the project.
The project is supported by the EU Creative Europe Programme

[white hole] ist eine bewegte, inter-aktive und multi-sensorische Expedition in eine neue Wirklichkeit.
Zwei Tanz-Performerinnen laden dich ein, mit ihnen in eine Welt einzutauchen, in der Mensch und Maschine in Verbundenheit miteinander leben. Gemeinsam erforschen wir wie eine technologisch
„überarbeitete“ Menschheit in Zukunft handeln, denken und fühlen wird. Weißt du, was dein Körper kann? Und was er in Zukunft können wird? Welche neuen Möglichkeiten und Grenzen entdeckst du?
The two dancers Anjana M.R. and Katharina Senk work on the fusion of dance and martial arts in their intercultural project SHAKTI. The project is shared within several contexts in Austria (April
& May 2019) and India (November & December 2019): In the form of performances of the artistic collaboration between the two movers, in workshops for non-professional as well as
professional dancers of all ages, in workshops for kids aged 3-5, in talks and discussions as well as in a big group-choreography which they were asked to create for a group of 50 dance-students
etc.
They explore the impact and the consequences the southern-indian Martial-Arts style of Kalaripayattu has on their individual artistic practice, their bodies, and their respective surrounding
societies.
In addition to their research on a personal level, the two dancers question how the practiced and visible (re)presentation of female power are encountered and perceived in their different
national and social contexts.
How can the artforms of dance and of martial-arts facilitate a sense of empowerment and safety? In the body? But also in the societies we live in?
SHAKTI is a (warrior)dance for power, security and resilience.
With the generous support of Bundeslanzleramt Österreich, beat1060 and Hindustan Kalari Sangam. Thank you.
Also Thanks to BG/BRG Wels, D.ID - Dance Identity, Tanz die Toleranz and to our dear friends and families for their love and help.
