Objectification

Objectification

An intensive workshop with Normies Study Group

with Matilde Flor Usinger & Ruben R

Following presentations in Prague, Berlin, Barcelona, and Copenhagen, Normies Study Group brings its acclaimed research methodology to UNCENSORED Festival for a one-day intensive workshop. Challenging conventional ideas of objectification, the workshop explores it as an embodied, relational practice rooted in care, desire, consent, power, vulnerability, and play.

Through movement, touch, sound, collective composition, and embodied exercises, participants will investigate intimacy as an artistic methodology while developing practical tools that can be applied to performance, artistic practice, and collaborative creation.

Open to artists, performers, researchers, and anyone curious about embodied experimentation, no previous performance experience is required. The workshop functions as both a research space and a rehearsal process, with participants collaboratively generating the material for a live performance and body installation that will premiere as the closing event of UNCENSORED Festival 2026 on 11 July.

People interested will have to complete this form before buying their ticket.
