Landscapes explores the intersection of two groove-based movement practices and is created for two dancers with backgrounds in house and folk dance. Inspired by couple dance as a phenomenon and pulse as a medium the work explores how similarities and differences can be passed on between the dancers in order to create new and fleeting landscapes of crafts and experiences. A work that strives to give the audience an experience of being immersed in the dance rather than watching it from a distance.
Premiere at Dansens hus, Stockholm April 23-24 2025. Will also be performed at Rosenlunds Teater, Trondheim 2-3 of May 2025 and CiK Knivsta 25th of September 2025.
The dance film Landscapes in Process was shown at Oslo Pix Film Festival/ SHORTS: Exhibition Program // Pix on Art at Dansens Hus Oslo in 2024.
