WAVELENGTHS – SCREEN SOUTH WORKSHOP ‘BETWEEN GAZE & FLOW’ with Alexandrina Hemsley

Join dance artist Alexandrina Hemsley for a masterclass exploring movement for camera. Drawing from her film FOUNTAIN (2022), Alexandrina will share the motivations behind her screendance practice and offer a space to reflect on how a dancing body calls for the camera not as a tool of capture, but as a witness. How can screendance empower performers to refuse capture and maintain agency in the act of being seen? Drawing from her interdisciplinary process, the session will consider how the camera becomes a portal connecting dance to audiences. The session will include movement-based tasks, creative writing, and hands-on experimentation with the camera to explore these ideas in practice. Moving between gaze and flow, together we’ll ask: what becomes possible when the body flows beyond the frame, opening towards something ever more vibrant and complex?
