He is interested in a process of creative space construction (illuminate spaces) to explore the paths and patterns the urban and contemporary dancer traces in the performance area to create visual interest and dramatic development in-between the different dance styles. design thinking in the collaborative creation process - a lab by anja gallagher and sanne clifford anja and sanne will be facilitating design thinking methods to use the creative power of the group with democratic choices, in order not to get lost in options. there will be two given topics to start with and the collaborative process will take us towards surprising directions. the schedule for this spring lab:
