The workshop series Body Tongues by the artist Sall Lam Toro explores performance and movement as tools to investigate multimodal corporealities for trans and nonbinary people. The course consists of a series of body positive movement workshops with both conversation and somatic exercises. There will be sharing space for reflections and exchanges about experiences within the healthcare system, for example concerns, knowledge, experiences and thoughts about treatment in the wider healthcare system, CKI or Center for Sexology. The workshops depart from playful and caring somatic exercises that allow trans and non-binary people to explore new creations of the body and self in a safe, collective space facilitated by the artist.
The time frame for the project is April-December 2023. The workshops are held at Huset i Hasserisgade in Aalborg.

Sall Lam Toro (they/them) (1990, PT) is an antidisciplinary multimedia performance artist based in Copenhagen. Their work evokes inter-relational decolonial, ecoerotic, cosmic and embodied manifestos that confront what they call “the hijacked body”. The hijacked body arises from the illusion of separability, and Toro often works with strategies to devise artistic interventions to unwrite and disrupt this body collectively. Through ritual, glitches, failure, dialogues with ecoerotic companions, text, resonance and e-motion, Toro develops poetic multitudes of body and radical imagination within anticapitalist, anarchist, and collective liberation modes.
The project is generously supported by Region Nord, Trygfonden, Statens Kunstfond, Den Jyske Kunstfond, Buens Bogcafé, and Huset i Hasserisgade.
Forløbet i workshop-serien Body Tongues af kunstneren Sall Lam Toro udforsker performance og bevægelse som værktøjer til at undersøge multimodale kropsligheder for trans- og nonbinære personer. Forløbet består af en række bevægelses-workshops hvor der skabes plads til refleksion og udveksling omkring erfaringer med sundhedssystemet, f.eks bekymringer, viden, oplevelser og tanker omkring behandling i det bredere sundheds-system, CKI eller Sexologisk Center. Workshoppene tager udgangspunk legende og omsorgsfulde somatiske øvelser, som giver trans-og non-binære personer mulighed for at udforske nye tilblivelser af kroppen og selvet i et trygt, kollektivt rum faciliteret af kunstneren.
Forløbets tidsramme er april-december 2023. Workshoppene afholdes på Huset i Hasserisgade i Aalborg.
