Read more about the artists here!!
In the festival, we wish to explore poetry in performance. How do artists respond to this theme when working visually with performance as an art form? How can poetry be translated into performance art? By setting this theme, we also wish to convey the various ways and approaches in which artists work.
The topic can be beautiful and soft, or dramatic and dark. Poetry can be absurd, weird, incomprehensible, humorous, grave, light or heavy. In poetry one can explore rhythm and repetition in the language, the symbolism in words and the elaborate in texts.
Video exhibition programme
We will show photography by Monika Sobczak and 3 video programs: Curator Margarida Paiva presents three work by Johanna Pawlik, Curator Lilith Performance Studio presents Jannicke Låker (NO), Henna- Riikka Halonen (FI), Elin Lundgren & Petter Pettersson (SE), Curator Tanja Thorjussen presents The Icelandic Love Corporation (IS), Miho Shimizu (JP) and Anna Prikhodko (RU).
