WCCI Logotype

Contact improvisation is exactly what it sounds like – improvisational dance done in pairs or larger groups with the stated goal of moving spontaneously and never losing physical contact with your partner(s). Like modern dance, it is accepting and encouraging of all body types and training. Contact festivals can come off as a titch bacchanalian in spite of the fact that it is a serious form practiced by serious dancers. WCCI wanted a logo that communicated diversity and motion, that would allow them to apply for grants and not look like a bunch writhing hippies. The two C connections mimics a hip to hip, or hip to back point of departure common in contact improvisation dance.
