For two days Aloni worked with 20 artists who were invited to the workshop through an application process which happened in Fall last year. During the workshop, Aloni shared a few elements from their practice - The I.Aloni Experience in which the participants were asked to explore the ways in which certain identities manifest in their corporeality and physical activity.
This was not the first time for Aloni at Toplocentrala. In the past they performed their solo piece My Body My Nation there and later they led a week-long workshop with local artists which culminated in a public presentation.
The collaboration on PASSING is an organic next step, building on the warmth and trust that Aloni has been experiencing at Toplocentrala and with the wonderful people who work there.
