Performance Design as a Creative Interaction Tool for Young People with Dr. Sofia Pantouvaki

This workshop explored how the design methods and collaboration processes of design for performance can be used for the creative engagement of children and youth. The workshop exploited principles of scenography, e.g. creating dramatic/conceptual place within a given space, and character analysis and character building – essential for costume design – as means introducing the notions of space and place, enhancing visual expression and the understanding of human characters. The workshop aimed to propose how creative activities based on the practices of performance design can be incorporated in education engaging the local community.

This workshop was for educators, students interested in educational aspects.

Price: £6
