SENSORY SPACE SHIFT

Sabrina Huth (she/her) is a dance artist, choreographer, somatic educator, and certified Myoreflex practitioner based in Berlin. She is a graduate of the MA in Artistic Research at the Amsterdam University of the Arts and a guest student of HZT Berlin. In her artistic practice, Sabrina crosses somatic practices with post-capitalist and queer fantasies of togetherness. She likes to think of herself as a host welcoming audience members and bodywork receivers into landscapes, where the real and the fictional, the poetic and the political are gently interwoven. Since 2018, with Ilana Reynolds, she has developed the choreographic approach "Imagined Choreographies" showcasing their work on stage, in galleries, and through written publications across Germany and Europe. Since 2020, with Nagao Akemi, she has explored the artistic and critical potential inherent in "resting and slowing down" regularly leading "Saturday Digestion" sessions in settings such as UdK Berlin and HZT Berlin.

Wenke Schladitz (she/her) is a spatial practitioner based in Berlin. She works in the fields of architecture, conversion, interior and exhibition design and art focusing on social aspects and the sustainable use of resources. Since 2009 she has worked as a partner with CWA architects. In their projects they look for new forms of urban living together. They create (safer) spaces for marginalized groups like people with disabilities or refugee backgrounds. For the queer housing project LOVO they received the Berlin Award 2021. In the same year Wenke was a fellow at Cité internationale des arts Paris. She has also many years of experience in improvised forms of movement/dance (Contact Improvisation, Gaga, Butoh) and somatic practices and leads workshops.

Wenke and Sabrina connected on the dance floor, sharing an interest for queer feminist and somatic practices. They believe in the pivotal role of embracing the body's transformative potential for societal and environmental change.
