Guided by artist Sachin Babbar, the sessions cover fundamental techniques (such as gesture drawing, form, and dynamic composition) and explorative techniques to help you translate the energy and vitality of dance onto paper.
A local dancer (e.g. Contact Improvisation, Contemporary, Ballet, and Indian Classical) will feature as the subject to bring you fresh inspiration. They will act out still poses and dance sequences in line with their practise to allow you to explore this art form.
All skill levels are welcomed and encouraged. We will explore the power of motion in an open, relaxed, and supportive environment.
What you'll get
Sachin will provide drawing materials including: pencils, charcoals, calligraphy brushes for watercolour, watercolors, paper, and rubbers.
Knowledge required
All skill levels are welcome and encouraged. We will explore the power of motion in an open, relaxed, and supportive environment.
What to bring
If you desire to work with your own materials, do not hesitate to bring those along.
You can also bring a cushion to sit on: I encourage people to sit on the floor; it also means that there is more space for the dancer.
