You are invited to take part in the fourth research session exploring belonging, memory, and the body.

Belongingness – finding home in the flesh is a participatory artistic research project that asks how experiences of “home” live in us beyond words. Through somatic attention, movement, and collective presence, we will explore whether sensations of homecoming can be evoked, shared, and sensed through the body – in gestures, shifts and nuances.

When searching for where we belong, we often look outward: to people, places, objects, or histories. This session proposes a different direction of attention—very near, just beyond our eyes—towards the embodied traces we already carry. Each participant arrives with their own lived archive. It is a space for encounter: to be together, to listen, to experiment, and to reflect with others.

In April, we return to Verhalenhuis Belvédère in Rotterdam:

-          Monday 20 April 14:00-16:30, Rechthuislaan 1
