Xenia Koghilaki „Slamming”
21 + 22.08 / 21:00
(eng below)
Kolm etendajat on pühendunud ühisele kokkuleppele: rituaalne tants, mille juured on slämmimises. Nad töötavad laval mosh-piti praktikatega, liikudes raevu ja õrnuse, tooruse ja usalduse, valu ning helluse vahel, uurides neid mõisteid mitte vastanditena, vaid ainulaadses tantsuvormis omavahel põimunud elementidena. Publik „näeb“ tilkuvat higi, tugevnenud hingetõmbeid ning kiiremini lööma hakanud südameid, kui kolm etendajat „kogu südamest moshivad“. „Slamming“ otsib agressiivsest rahvamassist emotsionaalseid nüansse, mässust lõbu, taasluues kollektiivse rituaali, mis peitub näilise raevu taga.
Lavastus ei käsitle rahvamassi tantse kui midagi, mida lahti mõtestada, vaid kui kogemust, eeldades, et selline nihestus võib tekitada alternatiivseid viise nii üksinda kui ka ühiselt liikumiseks.
„Slamming“ on osa käimasolevast lavastuste sarjast, kus Xenia Koghilaki kasutab tantsu ja koreograafiat, uurimaks suhet subkultuursete moshimise praktikate ning kollektiivse lahtilaskmise vahel rahvamassides.

Three performers commit to one shared agreement: a ritualistic dance that originates from slamming. They transform mosh pit practices on stage, oscillating between rage and softness, rawness and trust, ache and tenderness, exploring these notions not as dipoles but as interconnected elements within a sui generis dance form.
The audience “sees” the sweat dripping, the breaths intensifying, and the hearts beating faster while the three performers are wholeheartedly “caught into a mosh”. “Slamming” seeks emotional nuances in the aggressive crowd, fun in rebellion, reconstituting a collective ritual that lurks behind an ostensible rage. It approaches crowd dances not as something to be deciphered but as a site of experience, assuming that such a displacement could generate alternative ways of moving both individually and collectively.
Slamming is part of an ongoing performance series in which Xenia Koghilaki uses dance and choreography to explore the relationship between the subcultural practices of moshing and those of collective discharge in the crowd.
