Inquiring Bodies is an event by dance artists, for dance artists, which creates a mutually supportive environment for exploration and open dialogue. We aim to create a safe and supportive space where both participant artists and Guest Artists can offer, share and investigate together.
For 2026, we welcome Jo Fong as our Guest Artist.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
“I like this phrase “We are consenting to explore the unknown”. My work has led me to questions like what is community? What does diversity look like? Can the body tell us something about consent? What are the positives around uncertainty or the unsolved? I’m in a constant state of learning and unlearning and yet there is a part of my practice which acknowledges my experience, my language, the work of relating and an inherent body intelligence that is experimenting in trusting its choices. I’m enjoying the layered, the unknown and the effortless."
ABOUT JO FONG
Jo Fong is an award-winning director, choreographer and performer working in Dance, Theatre, Film and Live Art. She lives in Wales and her creative work reflects the need in these times for people to come together. Her artistic practice is an evolving, collaborative approach which puts ideas around belonging or forming community in the forefront.
