Empathic Action!
An international Call Out for our Environment
in collaboration with Vincent Ordonenz
Photo Rita Vilhena & Yael Karavan
Dear friends of the world, in the face of the current pandemic we feel the need to break the silence into action for our planet. We believe that waiting for the political bodies and authorities to take action of these urgent matters is a waist of time and that we need to unite in the face of this crises in order to imagine a better future and protect our environment= ourselves. We therefore feel the need to act together now before it is too late. We believe that we are part of this wondrous nature and that we must start to have more empathy towards it hence towards ourselves. How ironic that we pollute the air of our planet and here comes Covid19 who suffocates us back, reminding us that we are part of the whole, the cause and the effect. As we are now experiencing closure of borders and social distancing we are nevertheless also experiencing, more than ever, how connected we are beyond countries and frontiers. We invite you to join our Empathic Action towards our one and only Home- Planet earth and to add to our Action with you Heart and Art.
We invite you to take part in our E-Action (empathetic action) for the planet by submitting an artwork in response to this theme. This collection of international artworks aims to include as many artists as we can worldwide compiled into an online book/gallery for dissemination across numerous platforms, working through partners, community groups, schools, museums, libraries and shared networks. Viewers will be given the option, but not obligation, to make donations and any funds raised will be given to charities to counter climate change. The works we aim to collect are of an audio-visual nature; we invite works from artists in any discipline across visual, performance, music, poetry and/or tech arts. The collection will be edited to produce a simple but immersive virtual experience taking the viewers’ on an audio-visual journey to encourage empathetic action. We see this present moment as a great opportunity to enforce and profess change, to collaborate as a world community and help protect our one and only home and the life on it.
All works of art (E-Actions) should be sent in JPG or PDF format not bigger than 10 mega
If it’s a video or a film, please send a link or a wetransfer.
To the following address: info@yaelkaravan.com
All right reserved to the artist
Please feel free to spread the word: it is time we break the silence
When sharing your work online please use #empathicactionow to spread faster and wider.
With best of wishes Yael Karavan and Vincent Ordonenz.
We are currently looking for a designer to help us with our website if you can recommend us anyone that would be greatly appreciated.

May 1st – 9th 2010 10 years to the Karavan Ensemble!!
Photo by Javi Otero with Linda Remahl and Bruno Humberto
10 years to the unforgettable experience of A ship of fools all over Brighton and in the legendary Coachwerks. We were mad, we were poetic, we had no shame we brought the inner to the outer and the wild to the streets of Brighton. I will never forget these magical days… strange to imagine that 10 years later the streets of Brighton are silent during the month of May… foolish misses and love to you all! xx
‘Let your heart be your compass!’ Xelis De Toro.
The Karavan Ensemble’s debut piece was based on the allegory of a Ship of Fools, aboard which society’s ‘misfits’ are gathered. Through dance, physical theatre, and site specific explorations a band of colourfuly edgy characters came to be. With ample audience participation, the Karavan Ensemble dared its public to open a door within, and encounter the fools that lay inside us all. Originally created and performed in Coachwerks, as part of Brighton fringe festival in May 2010.
Directed and performed by Yael Karavan with Linda Remahl, Bruno Humberto, Ana Fernandez Martinez, Sofia Fernandez Martinez, Rachel Champion, Pepa Ubera, Howard Sivills, Tamar Daly and Marion Deprez. Live music and sound composition by Tristan Shorr. Designer Sara Popowa.

Solo site specific performance by Yael Karavan
part of the Ephemeral Exhibition @White Space Black Box
All is about the ephemeral, the volatile, the fleeting – constantly changing and reinventing itself. Some artists will pop up, others will disappear – some major works will stay throughout the year. Art will flirt with nature and science.
And merge into completely new shapes of expression.
IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.

Oportunidade rara de trabalhar com aclamada artista de Teatro físico e Butoh
Santa Apolónia – Lisboa
Leva anos para um bebé começar a identificar as coisas, aprender que cada objeto tem função e nome, mas quando quebramos essas regras e descobrimos o objeto além da sua funcionalidade, a vida se torna mais misteriosa, lúdica e interessante. Escutamos o mundo e nos damos conta de que tudo é vivo. Yael propõe a sua ampla experiência de teatro físico e visual, dança, e Butoh para explorar maneiras de se relacionar criativamente com a matéria, os objetos e o espaço, explorando-os como parceiros, provocadores de personagens, inspiração e vocabulário. Como ouvi-los, transformá-los e deixar que nos transformem.
Valor:55 €até 17 de Maio; 65 €após.

Butoh Workshop at Brighton Natural Health Centre
Butoh Brighton is back at the Brighton Natural Health Centre with our seasonal Butoh Sunday workshop, in March I will be sharing more than 20 years of experience having worked with the founding members of Butoh Dance in Japan and Europe. The main elements we will be explored are metamorphoses, dance through imagery, presence, awareness and the tension between opposites. The aim is to free the body from its mundane preconceived set of gestures and movements and thus allowing us to access a deeper and more authentic essence of movement and archetypal expression. Questioning why is Butoh Dance still relevant today.
“My dance is far removed from conventions and techniques, it is the unveiling of the inner life.” Tatsumi Hijikata

Open to all who would perform, this workshop offers an immersion beneath the surface of the material world. Discover objects beyond their functionality, listen and realize that everything is alive. Suddenly, life becomes much more mysterious, playful and interesting… These sessions use techniques of physical and visual theatre, Butoh, dance and mime to explore how to creatively relate to material, objects and space, how to listen to them, explore them as partners, and instigators of characters and physical states, how to transform them and allow them to transform us.

‘A movement of freedom!’ is a Cabaret Night of live performance, music and unexpected surprises, curated and performed by Yael Karavan with Ed Briggs, Xelis Detoro, Tim Harbridge and special guest Joe Watson.
Friday 30th March is the Passover night…where people traditionally come together to celebrate their freedom, it’s also Good Friday, Black Friday (originally connected to Paganism rather than consumerism!), it’s a year after the triggering of article 50…and a year before the UK leaves the EU in a political move that literally threatens our freedom of movement!…so if these are not good reasons to emerge from this long cold winter into a long awaited spring and celebrate our freedoms together, then what are?!

Escutamos o mundo e nos damos conta de que tudo é vivo. Yael propõe a sua ampla experiência de teatro físico e visual, dança, e Butoh para explorar maneiras de se relacionar criativamente com a matéria, os objetos e o espaço, explorando-os como parceiros, provocadores de personagens, inspiração e vocabulário. Como ouvi-los, transformá-los e deixar que nos transformem.

Butoh Workshop at Brighton Natural Health Centre
Butoh Brighton is back at the Brighton Natural Health Centre with our seasonal Butoh Sunday workshop, in March I will be sharing more than 20 years of experience having worked with the founding members of Butoh Dance in Japan and Europe. The main elements we will be explored are metamorphoses, dance through imagery, presence, awareness and the tension between opposites. The aim is to free the body from its mundane preconceived set of gestures and movements and thus allowing us to access a deeper and more authentic essence of movement and archetypal expression. Questioning why is Butoh Dance still relevant today.
“My dance is far removed from conventions and techniques, it is the unveiling of the inner life.” Tatsumi Hijikata

Open to all who would perform, this workshop offers an immersion beneath the surface of the material world. Discover objects beyond their functionality, listen and realize that everything is alive. Suddenly, life becomes much more mysterious, playful and interesting… These sessions use techniques of physical and visual theatre, Butoh, dance and mime to explore how to creatively relate to material, objects and space, how to listen to them, explore them as partners, and instigators of characters and physical states, how to transform them and allow them to transform us.

We are delighted to invite you to the first in the In/Out Cabaret series at Rosehill, Brighton.
Friday 30th March doors open at 7.30pm
‘A movement of freedom!’ is a Cabaret Night of live performance, music and unexpected surprises, curated and performed by Yael Karavan with Ed Briggs, Xelis Detoro, Tim Harbridge and special guest Joe Watson.
Friday 30th March is the Passover night…where people traditionally come together to celebrate their freedom, it’s also Good Friday, Black Friday (originally connected to Paganism rather than consumerism!), it’s a year after the triggering of article 50…and a year before the UK leaves the EU in a political move that literally threatens our freedom of movement!…so if these are not good reasons to emerge from this long cold winter into a long awaited spring and celebrate our freedoms together, then what are?!

Il faut des années pour qu’un bébé commence à identifier des choses, à apprendre que chaque objet a une fonction et un nom. En tant qu’adultes, nous pouvons enfreindre ces règles et découvrir l’objet au-delà de sa fonctionnalité, écouter le monde et réaliser que tout est vivant. Et tout à coup, la vie devient beaucoup plus mystérieuse, enjouée et intéressante… »

Suddenly, life becomes much more mysterious, playful and interesting… These sessions use techniques of physical and visual theatre, Butoh, dance and mime to explore how to creatively relate to material, objects and space, how to listen to them, explore them as partners, and instigators of characters and physical states, how to transform them and allow them to transform us.

“Constantemente renascemos. E não será suficiente simplesmente sair do útero materno. Precisamos de muitos nascimentos. Renascer sempre e em todos os lugares. Constantemente.” – Tatsumi Hijikata
Yael Karavan tem cerca de 20 anos de experiência em Butoh, durante os quais teve a oportunidade de trabalhar com os fundadores do Butoh no Japão: Kazuo Ohno e Motofuji San – esposa de Tatsumi Hijikata, bem como com Tadashi Endo, Yumiko Yoshioka, Carlotta Ikeda, Sankai Juku, entre outros.
“Minha dança está longe das convenções e técnicas. Minha dança é o desvelar de uma vida interna” – Tatsumi Hijikata

Mon 12th -19th – Pupik– the outreach community engagement part of the project is taking off-
30th 7.30 Doors open– ‘A Movement of Freedom!’ Cabaret Night.
We are delighted to invite you to the first in the In/Out Cabaret series at Rosehill, Brighton.
Friday 30th March doors open at 7.30pm
‘A movement of freedom!’ is a Cabaret Night of live performance, music and unexpected surprises, curated and performed by Yael Karavan with Ed Briggs, Xelis Detoro, Tim Harbridge and special guest Joe Watson.
Friday 30th March is the Passover night…where people traditionally come together to celebrate their freedom, it’s also Good Friday, Black Friday (originally connected to Paganism rather than consumerism!), it’s a year after the triggering of article 50…and a year before the UK leaves the EU in a political move that literally threatens our freedom of movement!…so if these are not good reasons to emerge from this long cold winter into a long awaited spring and celebrate our freedoms together, then what are?!
