[Performing Body Scors]
The community is composed of a multitude of individuals and the associations they form into a collective. Each individual is characterized by numerous thoughts, emotions, attitudes, and visions—shaped and honed by biographical circumstances and experiences. Every experience manifests in the body and as an atmosphere within the community’s structure.
[Crisis Scorings]
In the context of the large wave of refugees in 2015 this method was applied by 40 refugees, 20 students and 20 citizens that helped to become aware of experiences, emotions, and thoughts. It involved body scans for sensations, tensions, or areas of discomfort -which can reveal how personal experiences are stored in the body- and performative drawings to develop a biographical vision of how things can progress in the individual’s life and within the society that is receiving to understand better the subtle ways in which biographical histories and emotional states influence interactions within the atmospheres and dynamics of the community with the intention to create a new good togetherness..
