Call (burn) OUT
Burnout is a state of emotional, mental and often physical exhaustion caused by prolonged or repeated stress. Stress occurs when we perceive a threat - real or imagined. Even if we don't consciously perceive it, it affects us physically and emotionally.
The artists from the Developing Art Association are starting in 2022, in three different cities, an artistic research on the topic of burnout. In Timișoara, Irina Marinescu takes part in a residency hosted by Unfold Motion and works on the topic of burnout from three perspectives: "I want to relate three concepts - work, energy, emotions. I will look at what work experiences mean, how we relate to work, the type of energy we invest or receive from the activities we do. And further, to the perception and manifestation of emotions in the body, which we activate in movement"
Join the work process of the artistic residency with Irina Marinescu.
"During my residency, I invite four people to participate with me in an artistic research on exhaustion and burnout. I will be remotely assisted by psychotherapist Mihaela Vechiu, my collaborator in this process."

​
-attend three meetings of three hours each,on March 22, 23, 24, between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m., in the Unfold Motion hall, str. Aries, no. 19, Timisoara.
- tell us your personal experiences: if you are going through an exhausting period, if you feel exhausted, if you have gone through burnout or if you are trying to find ways to manage your stress.
- to move and dance - together we will try a physical activation, through movement and dance, of the emotions felt by you.
- to explore together limits and ways of defining limits.
