Origami and Movement Workshop
Origami and Movement Workshop
All Ages
Sunday 18 October
11 AM-1 PM
In this Origami and Movement Workshop co-facilitated by visual artist Miya Turnbull (Halifax) and dance artist Shion Skye Carter (Vancouver) is presented in conjunction with their performance Omote (面). Participants will learn how to fold Miya’s self-portrait origami designs, shaping the paper portraits into interactive designs emphasizing identity as something formed through gesture, pressure, and process. The origami sculptures will then be used in an improvised movement practice led by Shion, inspired by paper folding and unfolding and embodying themes of repetition, transformation, and multiplicity. This workshop is open-level and suited to all ages; for younger children, assistance from an adult is requested.
This workshop and the performance Omote (面) are Co-Presented by Springboard Performance and Esker Foundation as part of Fluid Fest 2026.
