SKUMITATE -ärvda relationer byter skepnad- (up coming)

This project is should not be seen as a completed work. 

The artistic process is kept alive by inviting new participants with other skills and expressions – a reflection of society at large where relationships are inherited and at the same time transformed.

The title of the work, "SEBONE," means spine in Japanese. It also means the nucleus or skeleton of a structure.

Neither the person nor the work would be possible without the spine. This work is the very process of searching for something that is the nucleus of existence.

This work is research for a collaboration between tap dance and puppeteering scheduled for 2023 - 2024.




"Gnugga"

“Gnugga” - A visualization of strain and friction.

Flexible painting and dancers on stage. 

The interlocking patterns are a metaphor for the ideal, and as they are moved and distorted, they evoke the gap between ideal and reality. Like our memories, which are a mixture of fact and fiction.
