Geert Vaes: PRETEND TO BE OLD! workshop

Tickets: 10.00€
Location : Eskus View on map

In this workshop Belgian artist Geert Vaes will work with participants on the visual and physical aspects of aging.
Date:
13 October, 2014 13:00

Geert Vaes works on a piece on aging and dying with his collaborator Walter Bourdin. In this workshop he will work with participants on the visual and physical aspects of aging. With silicone and a hairdryer they will age their skin and with sandbags tied to the joints they will investigate the best ways to mimic the aging of the skeleton. The last part of the transformational process will be finding your older voice and dressing ”older”. After these experiments the participants will go into the city and walk and talk as an aged person to see how it feels. If time permits the finale of the workshop will be a parade to the cemetery! The whole process of this workshop will be filmed.
