0.ALKANTARA is a workshop and choreographic project about making, crafting, recycling, and constructing spaces, led by Brussels-based Moroccan choreographer Radouan Mriziga. Over 5 sessions, participants will explore dance and choreography as a medium between viewers and buildings, between imaginary, concrete and intellectual space. For professionals or post-secondary students in dance, performance, theatre, design, architecture or others with an interest in sharing, showing and performing space (max. 10 participants).
Radouan Mriziga (1985) is a choreographer and dancer from Marrakesh, currently living and working in Brussels. After studying dance in Morocco, Tunisia and France, Radouan Mriziga graduated from P.A.R.T.S. in Brussels. In works like 55 (Alkantara Festival 2016) and 7 (Alkantara Festival 2018), he focuses on human beings as the makers of their surroundings, connecting the body in motion to the expression of form in everyday materials and the architecture of our built environment. Mriziga is currently artist-in-residence at Moussem Nomadic Arts Centre and Kaaitheater (Brussels).
