  • Time
This panel brings together perspectives that explore dance as a site of encounter, creation and discovery.

This panel brings together perspectives from academic-practitioners across UAL and The Place to explore dance as a site of encounter, creation and discovery.

From health and science to technology, culture, education and social practice, dance fosters unexpected connections between bodies, ideas and communities. Speakers will offer individual provocations before engaging in conversation with each other on what becomes possible when we cross disciplinary boundaries and approach shared questions through movement.

Join us at the crossroads to explore how dance can connect, challenge and transform the ways we understand what it means to be human.
