Performance Lab

Performance Lab is a series of events in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. It is facilitated by Clara J:son Borg and amy pickles, and supported by funding from Gemeente Rotterdam.

We are grateful to a number of hosts in the city including WORM Rotterdam, Dokhuis & WET Film, who gave their spaces for workshops. Between September to December 2019, and May to June 2024, five invited artists shared aspects of their performance practice in educational workshops.

This website presents debris from past workshops, as records of the events and as tools we hope an extended audience can use. It is a site comprised of reflections, advice and techniques for working with people, working with your body and your voice.

Click on the names of each artist and you will be taken to an account from them, a workshop participant and amy and Clara as facilitators.
