This is not your typical mime workshop about miming walls, pulling ropes, or climbing stairs! Instructor Shang-Te Yao, a disciple of the Corporeal Mime system founded by Etienne Decroux, the father of modern mime, returns to Macau. Two years ago, he explored the "material possibilities" of the body with participants. This time, he delves deeper, starting from the relationship between the body and space to engage in improvisational interaction with the environment.
Etienne Decroux once said, "It is not the nakedness of the human body that is obscene, but the human face." In mime performance, the first thing we remove is facial expression. Through physical exercises such as causal movement, exploration of the body's materiality, and fundamental mime actions, we will discover the potential of the human body as a "neutral material."
