4D - DANCE.DRAMA.DREAM.DRAW 01 May 2025
*your key is your body*
4D: Four powerful practices to access your inner riches, strengthen your sense of connection and give your intuition more space to grow freely.
Through mute movement, improvisation, guided meditation and creative exercises, inner resources are activated in a playful way and old patterns are gently released.
4D is aimed at all people – regardless of age or previous knowledge – who want to get to know their intuitive creativity better and enrich it.
These 4D imaginative triggers guide participants into deeper layers of perception and expression.
This process expands each person’s vocabulary of gesture, presence, and appearance, revealing new ways of seeing and being as well as to listen to one another, echo, and transform.
This "mute movment method" was developed by C.K. and launched in Vienna may 2025: the practice is ongoing and you can book her for workshops, single- and team sessions.

MUTE MOVEMENTS, a collective performance art journey through Beirut 2009-2014
AT AUB, WEST HALL,Foyer 2nd floor, 5-8pm
by Cornelia Krafft / Artist, Choreographer
Designed by Christian Moussa
* Generously sponsored and hosted by the AUB President's Club.
* Published by AUB Press
* In commemoration of the American University of Beirut´s 150th Anniversary Celebration in 2016
The first book of its kind in Lebanon, Mute Movements documents the emergence of a Performance Art scene in Lebanon under the direction of Cornelia Krafft, artist, choreographer, and former assistant professor at the American University of Beirut. The book illustrates the collective work of students and artists (aged 19 to 25) exploring their everyday challenges and concerns through the medium of performance.
The book's minimalist aesthetic and design enfold a wealth of artistic images, an extraordinary record of the evolution of Performance Art in Lebanon across five fertile years of artistic endeavour. Across the pages of the book, each performance unfolds in documentary-like fashion, revealing the extent to which contemporary education in the fields of performance, set design, and visual arts can engage and inspire its audiences. While the focus is on Lebanon and its youth, the bigger picture is a work in progress with relevance extending far beyond the borders of one small country, making Mute Movements a valuable and highly enjoyable reference work of international importance.
