With Artist Talk: Mette Ingvartsen in English on the 5th of December
The Danish Ingvartsen always manages to shape her abstract themes into clever, funny and stimulating performances. She creates sensory (dance) theatre, in which the audience sometimes shares the space with the performers. This time, Ingvartsen and nine dancers create a universe of light and darkness, shapes and reflections. Images appear and disappear as the dancers move objects and light sources through the space.
-|-Ingvartsen graduated in 2003 from the Brussels dance academy P.A.R.T.S. and was artist-in-residence at the Kaaitheater in Brussels from 2012 to 2016. Dance festival Julidans has previously shown in ITA Ingvartsen's three-part series The Red Pieces, about the meaning of nudity and sexuality in our society and about the boundaries between public and private.
