Artist Mentorship

 

This is a multifaceted dance program encompassing various techniques, performances, residencies, incubation, and interactive platforms, designed to foster artistic collaboration among dancers, movement researchers, producers, and choreographers. Participants are encouraged to dig into the contemporary essence and rituals of performance in diverse formats, exploring themes of social, political, spiritual, and cultural significance. The mentorship program includes research, workshops, presentations, exchanges, artistic discussions, lectures, tours, and experimental performances. Projects developed within this program are eligible for exhibition at the Ensibuko Festival.
