The Listening Project

Saturday, October 4, 1 to 4 pm

Free

The Listening Project is an interactive performance piece that explores multisensory listening created by Anne Willieme, a multidisciplinary artist and leader of Sensverse Studio.

 

The Listening Project invites you to share a story which will then be translated into visual terms by Anne Willieme and into movement by dancer Kate Walker. The program explores a multisensory-media translation from language to visual and movement-based expression. The work also aims to provide the participating audience with the feeling of being deeply heard.
