_{  7 pm} 

‘Talking Bodies’ is a performance-lecture series that gets underneath the skin of dance. Combining storytelling with live performance and discussion, ‘Talking Bodies’ traces connections between artists’ real-life experiences, the big topics of our time and the creative process.    

The ‘Talking Bodies’ 2023 series concludes at Campbelltown Arts Centre with celebrated Indigenous choreographer Vicki Van Hout with Wiradjuri visual artist Karla Dickens. Van Hout’s performance lecture will focus on the Indigenous female operative body. Her recent projects ‘Busy Hands Speaking Country’ and a Legs On The Wall choreographic development involving five Indigenous women, will inform an embodied response to Karla Dickens’ ‘Embracing Shadows’ survey exhibition. 

This is an Auslan interpreted event.

‘Talking Bodies’ is co-curated by Rhiannon Newton and Katy Green Loughrey and supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW.
