Hello, I would like to start a collection of continuums... If that makes no sense to you here is a few examples and please add some of yours if you have some.
Patience <---> Passion
Abstraction <---> Representation
Control <---> Expressiveness
If you read this diagram vertically, you get a group of concepts that seems caricatural of the form. The caricature being that abstract art is about control and representative art is about expression. There is some truth in it and it and that is why exploring this diagram diagonally is fun. That is why I love Abstract Expressionism and forms of art at the frontiere of being documentary (representation and control).

practicing improvisation in Vancouver
Mandate
We are a group of professional artists interested in pushing the craft of improvisation in the context of performance.
About Us
This is the blog for the ‘No Hitting’ Performance Collective.
The group includes some of Vancouver’s most intriguing dancers and musicians currently practicing improvisation. Brought together by the vision of Laura Hicks and Jennifer Clarke, the group meets weekly to share quandaries and insights, ask lots of open ended questions, and hone a group practice. Some of our discussions and discoveries will be posted here.
Have a performance space? Contact us! Ideal spaces are galleries, lofts, cafes and lobbies. Nothing is too big or too small. Eventually upcoming performances will be listed here.
Interested in joining us? The performance collective is now full, but we’re always happy to have new people to practice with. Contact Laura to ask about practice sessions.
