The Neutral mask invites us to look, to listen, to smell and to feel the world as it was for the first time. It reveals to us the power that is hidden in the absolute present, the here and now! It's the mask that allows us to take out all the rest of our “masks”.

Lecoq, as the inspirator of the Neutral Mask, said that: “it's the mask that helps us feel the neutral condition, that goes before action, a situation of acceptance of everything that surrounds us, without any inner conflict.”

It's an experience-based seminar focused on motion, aiming on exploring the multiple different layers of the “body”. Basic creative principles: the embodiment, the artistic individualization and the unique nature of the person. We will work on “dreamlike” images, corporal impulses, inner sceneries and archetypal dynamics. We will develop our creative intuition, our playful mood and we will acquire deeper body awareness. We will use the power of the mask to dive into the corporal memory that is liberated from the confinements of our mind. Moreover, during this procedure of exploring the different layers in our Poetic Body, we will use the the tools of Guiding Drawing with carbon on white paper and the exercises of energetic imagination.

The combination, the assimilation and the experience-based application of all of those we have been taught by the pedagogical paths of LISPA (London International School of Performing Arts) and especially our Master there led us to the creation of this journey of discovering the “poetics” of our body through the Neutral Mask.
