Encounter 14: The Art and Craft of Improvisation / Improvising with Escher (2022)

THE ART AND CRAFT OF IMPROVISATION / IMPROVISING WITH ESCHER

Date & Time: 29 October 2022, 10:00-16:00
Venue: InKo Centre, Chennai
All are welcome

Chennai-based artists, Maarten Visser (musician/ composer) and Pravin Kannanur (visual artist/ dramaturg) come together to guide an experiential study of two selected works of Dutch graphic artist M. C. Escher. Building on their earlier work to devise and guide improvisation based on interdisciplinary elements and terms, Maarten and Pravin present Encounter 14 – Improvising with Escher, a workshop that draws from Escher’s mathematically-inspired woodcut, ‘Metamorphose’ and the lithograph ‘Three Worlds’ to open up an array of perspectives for the performer. In the process, M. C. Escher’s art of transformation, metamorphosis and relativity becomes a creative exploration for the participant.
