Selected Works
KUNSTEN I KROPPEN
is a dance experience for children from 4th to 6th grade. As participants, they are both the audience and the performers, and through dance, they have the opportunity to experience how art and the body merge. The format is an educational course where two dancers guide the participants through the exhibitions at the National Gallery of Denmark (Statens Museum for Kunst). The focus is on how the participants experience art through their own and each other's bodies, and from there, how they can create dance and choreography in synergy with the museum's exhibitions. It is a way to open up art through the body and use dance and movement to understand and discuss art.
The exhibition space is put into play and movement. By surrendering their bodies to this active and shared reality, a surprising transformation occurs: the art in the museum suddenly becomes an art we feel we know. The art is ours, and it concerns us all.

EUKARYOTIC
a part of FUGUE curated and created by Studio Thinking Hand
Eukaryotic is a solo performance carried out by a body in constant process, moving through thoughts on posthumanism and humanity's place in an ecosystem. Eukaryotic is a temporal performance that strives to decentralize the human body in order to redefine its structural movements. The movements arise in the transition from a vertical skeleton with blood vessels, muscles, and organs to a three-dimensional mass that passes through space and interacts with its environment. The piece embodies a posthumanist perspective and is a practice in observing and relating to complex entanglements and interactions that exist beyond a human scale and perception
