WHY: Weaverville Yoga’s Ballet teacher, Claire Elizabeth Barratt – who also happens to be the director of Cilla Vee Life Arts, is currently pursuing an MFA in Creative Practice with the Transart Institute. She has been developing a method for creating and teaching performance art. Her method is based on investigating the Self as a “raw material” with which to create living art.
Please join us at Weaverville Yoga studio as she shares her final project.
On Saturday evening there will be a live performance of dance and music.
On Sunday afternoon Claire will teach a Living Art workshop, which will be followed by a screening of video pieces about the body interacting with nature and the environment. There will also be an art installation of text, video, image and sound pieces depicting a journal of Claire’s process in developing the project.
The Living Art workshop is open to all – no performing arts experience necessary.
Attendance to all events is on a donation basis – please pay-what-you-can.
