Specifications: five-day collective encounter and live art performance
Normal Study Group (or Normies)
Normies Study Group is a collective research and performance group that gathers under a format developed by Matilde Flor Usinger and Ruben R. Across five days, a temporary collective of people comes together to investigate intimacy, embodiment, relationality, sexuality, and collective presence through shared physical research. On the sixth day, what emerges from this process becomes the final performance open to the public. This is not a workshop. It is not therapy. It is a space of collective embodied inquiry.
