Margit have had the fortune to practice Lisa Nelson’s Tuning Scores since 1996. Shx is fascinated by the inextricable relations made evident through subtle movement, dialogue, and perceptual vibrancy, and hir syncretic approach is based on decades of practice in movement/art lineages such as the Tuning Scores, the Feldenkrais Method, Suprapto Suryodarmo’s Amerta Movement, and Wild Goose Qigong. Margit collaborates with queer, feminist, indigenous, critical race studies, as well as earth-erotic, intercultural, and embodied approaches. This mosaic of inquiry and action is assembled and offered through the vivid grove — a live art school for moving, learning, creative evolution, and collective liberatory practices.
