16:00 - 17.30
This sensual, role-based workshop explores intimacy beyond couple dynamics through rotating trios. Participants move through structured somatic scores—being ignored, teased, directing, and co-creating—to experience how attention, power, and desire shift when roles change. With clear consent frameworks and ritualized transitions, the workshop invites play, slowness, and curiosity, embracing both awkwardness and pleasure as tools for connection.
Hippolyte
Hippolyte is based in Berlin, drawing on a background in space design, people management, and contemporary dance to explore movement and touch. Coming from a conservative cultural background, their move to Berlin sparked a desire to question norms around the body, relationships, and sexuality, and later those within cis-gay culture. Their practice grows from inquiry into grounding, intimacy, and the collective, shaped into shared experiences for exploration.
