The Knowing Body
 takes a journey through movement, art and music exploring our inner physical rhythms and responses to the body’s impulse to move. It also looks at what happens when we find ourselves instinctively moving to the same collective rhythm, creating large scale artworks, using different medium and parts of the body.
The Knowing Body
 is an interdisciplinary performance art event performed by the Plymouth Performance Art Collective. This work in progress investigates how rhythm plays an integral part within our daily lives individually and collectively, through internal and external influence including instinct and ritual. Long scrolled art works transcribed through the participation and observation of contemporary and improvised movement and dance has been interpreted by the performers creating a wealth of individual and collective movement material. An enquiry into the rhythm of sound and music informs the performers exploring how it can initiate and inspire through play and improvisation creating large scale spontaneous drawings and paintings. There is also the opportunity for audience members to try their hand at some impromptu collective drawing!
Following the event the audience are invited to join an informal feedback discussion to meet the artists and find out more about the creative process. Feedback will be gratefully received, informing the future development of 
The Knowing Body
.
