You are invited into the black box to meet the raw performing art in process.
This WORKSHARING is the culmination of a 1-week residency where 2 artists have immersed themselves in a research about the physical aspect of crying through personal and collective experiences.
THE ARTISTIC RESEARCHFrom a place of crying, an emotional state that embodies both friction and the potential for release, the group will research the somatic experience of tears. They will delve into the duration, intensity, and intention of this vulnerable state.
Digging into the scattered and the moments in-between each movement, they seek to observe every hiccup and tension that emerges in a crying session. Within this, they are curious to engage wording and voicing. By placing words on paper and outloud, they hope to transform the physicality of crying in a poetic and fictional scape.
Falling into crying is falling into care, in this research the artists want to find ways of holding space for friction to exist and unfold. Creating a nest of references, memories and elements of comfort.
ABOUT THE ARTISTSThe desire to collaborate comes from a place of shared interest in writing and choreography. They draw on shared threads from their educational backgrounds as a starting point for developing of their duoship and emerging their distinct artistic approaches. Through this IN PROCESS residency, they wish to explore and engage with new and relevant aspects of crying, building on their previous collaborative work.
HANNA A. LOKØY(she/her) is a Norwegian dance artist and choreographer based in Copenhagen. As a recent graduate of the Danish National School of Performing Arts, Lokøy is currently invested in her existing work with crocheting. Her debut "Å hekle ved" premiered in Tou Scene in September 2023 and has later performed the prequel "HÆKLET" in 2024 at Huset KBH and at Aaben Dans. Alongside this, Lokøy works with choreographic scoring actively in her processes. From her bachelor project, she started the research on Crying and Cunting, from a feminist interest on emotions that allows both dramaturgy and somatic experiences to play in, on one another.
AIKATERINI DIMITRELLI is a dance artist and performer from Greece, based in Copenhagen/Denmark. She graduated with a Bachelor of Dance and Choreography from The Danish National School of Performing Arts in 2024. Her artistic practice revolves around live composition between music and dance as a vibrant, frequent wave of constant listening. She is curious in the relation between body, thought and sound. Experimenting from a place which unfolds fictional narratives in space in order to create a poetic landscape. Improvisation scores, embodied words and metaphors are some of the elements she uses to investigate the limits between realism and dream.
