Woman power

Black power

Human power

always feeling
my heart beats
as my eyes open
as my hands move
as my mouth speaks
I am

Ready
(Audre Lorde, “Now”)
The sound, movement and speech workshop I know a woman attempts to create cross sections between gender, sexuality and culture-and-social-class-related issues, through improvisation and co-creation processes. Women of all ages from various communities of Athens come together on a weekly basis at Melissa Network for women immigrants, to co-shape original miniatures of speech, sound and movement. Their tools are natural and electronic sounds, speech, personal stories, movement and dance.
