Basically

KiasmaHelsinki, Finland
Basically is an ongoing live project. It utilizes the exhibition space as a hybrid production space and playground; a context to practice and perform within. Basically is structured as a choreographic game in which four performers hold the rules of the game constant, incorporating visitors in visible and invisible ways. The work is governed by the formal rules as well as by the subjective interpretations that occur in interactions with and between the participating artists and visitors. The creation and re-creation of the environment is...

I like to think (and     the sooner the better!)of a cybernetic meadowwhere mammals and computerslive together in mutuallyprogramming harmonylike pure watertouching clear sky.

STILL HERE – an alliance of care for the SZenne River

Mechelen, Belgium

Zenne School

How does a river flow and weave alliances between humans and other-than-humans? Do we need other ways of rendering care and enacting justice for the SZenne River? How do we co-create a living bill as a legitimate gesture of care with SZenne river and its allies?

STILL HERE – An alliance of care for the SZenne river is a new study case of Natural Contract Lab (NCL). A long-term artistic commitment between 2023-26 will enable the growing of a systemic relationship with the river’s ecosystem and local communities to weave an alliance of SZenne guardians with the ambition to co- create a Living Bill for the SZenne as an attempt for its legal recognition in the Belgian constitution. The project takes place across Wallonia, Brussels and Flanders – from the source of the SZenne in Soignies to its...

The River and The Devil

BeursschouwburgBrussels, Belgium

premiere

The River and The Devil invites the audience into the ruins of a disappearing river.

During colonial times in the Bolivian Andean Plateau, the river Desaguadero and its uncontrollable forces were demonized as ‘the Devil’ by colonial settlers. Since then, centuries of extraction have dried up the river, transforming it from water to salt. In The River and The Devil, Paula Almiron reimagines the Devil not as a destructive force but as the guardian of the river, exploring resilience and the remnants of fragmented histories. The river has turned into broken pieces, hiding and moving towards us...

MOLD

La MutantValencia, Spain

A mold refers to two very different things: it is a type of fungus but is also a hollow container to cast a specific form or pattern. As a fungus, a mold functions as a mycelial network that grows in ways that seem uncontrollable: connecting, colonizing, infecting, digesting, fruiting and producing spores. As a pattern, a mold is a matrix, a form that shapes malleable matters. MOLD wants to stage the conflict between spontaneous proliferation and casting, between two different logics in the same body.

Drawing on a variety of practices - mycology, fashion, fermentation, dance and sculpture - MOLD approaches the theater machine as a multiplicity of bodies. We want MOLD not only to be a performance but also a farm. An environment where dance, objects, audience, light, music, scents and costumes interact as living cultures. A garden dedicated to cultivating, abandoning, inoculating, braiding, duplicating, sprouting, warming up and decaying. Watch a video interview with Sara Manente about MOLD...

Spine of Desire: Wounds without tears, out of one skin in diamonds and shit

KaaitheaterBrussels, Belgium

premiere

Spine Of Desire: Wounds without tears, out of one skin in diamonds and shit is a black box performance that draws from individual and collective narratives to create an experience with sonic, visual, spatial and dancing elements.

Stanley Ollivier’s new work takes as a starting point the community building power of POC belonging spaces in order to reformulate familiar choreographic approaches. Together with performers Lily Brieu Nguyen and Mamadou Wagué, they explore everyday reality and social changes through a danced language that reflects the interrelations between the intimate, the body and the creation of a guarded, safe space.    ...

Something is Approaching

Almost Summer Festival

BUDAKortrijk, Belgium

premiere

In Something is Approaching, Carolina Mendonça investigates the notion of violence through writing and muscular rumination. What type of stories are stuck to our muscles that can be released by a bullet? Can our muscles dream of less violent narratives in a world that is collapsing?

After her previous work Zones of Resplendence focused on the imagination of an army that fights against sexual violence, some questions have become unavoidable and some practices seem to require more time. In Something is Approaching, Carolina and her team continue to speculate how choreography and body practices can be a form of self-defense, this time investigating the violence that is embedded in the social structure of the family. ...
