How can light act as a grieving body — sculpting absence, tenderness, and transformation?
At this WORKSHARING you are invited into an artistic research initiated by Sanna Blennow, who, together with light designer Ulrich Ruchlinski and dancers Alice Martucci and Karin Bergman, will transform the black box into a laboratory for light and investigate how light might carry loss, hold space for the unspoken, and allow memory to linger not through story, but through atmosphere, color, shadow, and presence.
Together they will explore how light can be used not to illuminate dance, but to become the dance. Light as an emotional and spatial dramaturg — capable of expressing grief, transformation, and absence.
In their work they will approach light as a co-performer; one that breathes, fades, exposes, dominates, and fractures. How can shifting tones, intensities, and placements evoke emotional architecture — from solitude to communal softness?
THE ARTISTS
In addition to experimenting with light as an active partner in the choreographic process, the artists in this residency are testing their new collaboration. This is the first time they have had the opportunity to work together as a group, and they are curious to see what energy, dynamics, and challenges they encounter during the residency, and whether it will be a catalyst for discoveries that drive the process forward, or draining and painful for their creativity.
