Samen vlechten - Wisknutselfestival
A pattern, a piece of string and a group of people: that’s all you need to create something special together. Can you make a plait whilst dancing? Grab a piece of string, follow the rhythm and see what pattern you can conjure up together!
Young and old alike are invited to join in and dance to a simple movement pattern. Everyone holds a rope and moves to the rhythm. As the group dances, the ropes cross over one another, creating an ever-changing braid in the centre of the group. Set to live music, the pattern evolves in tandem with the participants’ movements. What begins as a collection of loose ropes slowly transforms into a single, shared weave. This creates a mathematical choreography in which movement, music and connection come together. Come and join in, follow the pattern and discover what emerges when we move together.
