Premiere at Passage festival in Helsingborg
31 July at 15:00/16:00/17:00
The new dance production “Kosmos” is for children årskurs 4-6. It is an educative interactive performance and workshop as one package. Children will learn about our solar system and planets and all the elements of physics by experimenting with dance and music. I will collaborate with a composer and create original songs with playful lyrics and rhythm which can make children remember difficult new subject-specific words. Our scenography will help children enter into a dark and mysterious space surrounded by stars and stories. By using interactive method in this accessible way we include every child and give them a chance to express themselves within a safe environment.
Premiere "Death and life of Mr. O"
17 September 2020 INKONST Malmö
I started to work on this idea in December 2018 when I received a grant from Konstnärsnämnden and Danscentrum Syd. I invited Kunihiko Matsuo, Tokyo based multi-media artist, in Malmö and had one week of intensive brain storming workshop about the theme and as a result I received another support from Konstnärsnämnden and Malmö stad to continue farther researching for the piece.
July 2019 I did a workshop of research with 3 dancers (Tomomi Yamauchi, Khamlane Halsackda and Pietro La Loggia), scenographer (Marta Cicionesi), technical director (Silas Bieri) and Kunihiko. In this research I achieved making decisions about the concepts and direction of this performance, including discussions and decisions in developing ideas. At the end of the research I created a 15 minutes solo "ONE MOMENT" for supporting future promotion and anticipate sales.
Nika & Sisi López
A dans clown performance for children
“Nika and Sisi López” is a poetic and playful work, full of life and energy where two dance-clown characters dance and interact with the audience in a relaxed and humorous way
"Where in the body are feelings?”
They come from different places but through expressing their feelings they communicate and understand each other. They find a way to be open, to accept and their true value of ‘who they are’.
