A 60-minute guided movement session for all bodies. Frameworks include questioning the systems that shape and restrict our body’s movements, building trust with our body, witnessing as an act of empathy, and being seen as a generous act of connection. Participants will have an opportunity to enact embodied practices of care inside ARCOS’ interactive artwork, Potential Future Pasts, presented in the Back BOX Gallery at BOX 13 ArtSpace.
No dance experience required. Comfortable clothing recommended. Ages 15 and up.
ABOUT ARCOS
ARCOS hybridizes live, dancing bodies with ancient to emergent technologies in ways that deepen our understanding of our interdependence and manifest strategies for our collective flourishing. As a live arts creation, presentation, and service group rooted in the Austin community since 2014, ARCOS seeks to cultivate space for rigorously compassionate experimentation to build new forms—of performance, participation, organization, and relation.
ABOUT PUSH/PULL
PUSH/PULL is a transdisciplinary exhibition project featuring new works by aisha tida and Leila Mnekbi, developed with the support of ARCOS Dance. The exhibition at Box13 ArtSpace invites visitors to experiment with notions of agency and collectivity while questioning the patterns, loops, and illusions that we wish to escape.
At its core, PUSH/PULL demonstrates the need for reflective pause and the exploration of the creative potential of togetherness. Its offerings serve as a reminder that even in fragmentation, we are not alone.
PUSH/PULL is on view in the Upstairs BOX Gallery at Box13 ArtSpace in Houston, May 30th to June 28th, 2025, open to the public Saturdays or by appointment. The PUSH/PULL Exhibition Project is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance.
