The knowing body is a laboratory that develops around contact practices, improvisation, balances and circus technique, directed by Diana Niepce.
This laboratory occupies the place of the unknown, of research into body knowledge and the reformulation of the body in the creative process. She is interested in thinking about the body from the inside, as a place of possibilities, states and perspectives. Rewriting the body within the metamorphosis of internal and external states that reshape the body's own identity and define itself as history and manifesto.
