EXPRESSIONS: the power and politics of expectations in dance

EXPRESSIONS: the power and politics of expectations in dance is a project that explores expectations in dance through a research of theory and choreographic practice aiming to explore the potentialities of dance outside of its expected manifestation. Through a series of research residencies over the next three years material and information will be generated through resulting in performances, presentations and publications. The project is led by Steinunn Ketilsdóttir, an Icelandic choreographer and a research fellow at the Iceland Academy of the Arts in collaboration with a team of international artists and scholars.

How are we expected to perform inside the structure of our art form? As performers? As choreographers? As audience? As players inside any structure? Public or private? How are we expected to express ourselves? To act or not act? To move or not move? Investigation of our surrounding structures, their frameworks, and modes of production, requires us to look closely at their conceptual architecture. What effects and affects are they producing? What kind of expressions? And what are the expectations of those expressions? Can we change the desired outcome? Or more importantly, can we change the desires? The expectations? In fact, these questions extend far past the singular world of dance and hold deeply political implications for notions of free movement and political expression.

In Hammerfest the team consisted of: 
Steinunn Ketilsdóttir (IS) – Artistic and Research Director, Sierra Ortega (US) – Artist and Scholar, Mia Habib (NO) – Dance Artist, Snædís Lilja Ingadóttir (IS) – Dance Artist, Védís Kjartansdóttir (IS) – Dance Artist and Hugrún Jónsdóttir (IS) – Producer.

The teams time in the residency at Dansearena nord, Hammerfest marked the beginning of the groups three year international project. The audience was welcome to join in the night of July 11th for a performative investigation on what it meant to be a dancer!
This open rehearsal and discussion took place  at Studio Solveig Leinan-Hermo, Arktisk kultursenter. Tuesday 11th of July at 8 pm.  

This residency project is supported by Norsk-Islandsk Kultursamarbeid.
