Intersectional performance pedagogies
Organized by MA Performing Arts as Critical Practice, Malmö Theatre Academy
This kick-off week for the long-term collective research project on intersectionality, performance and arts pedagogies brings together MA students and teachers from Malmö Theatre Academy, Norwegian Theatre Academy, and Iceland University of the Arts with local and international artists, activists and thinkers in a small-scale, exploratory workshop setting.
Through embodied artistic practices and reflections, participants investigate concrete issues related to difference, knowledge, and power structures, and try to link these to questions about the (performing) arts field, language, heritage, aesthetics, audiences, and the changes that are overdue in arts education and institutions.
Open workshop on 4 and 5 November 10:00–17:00
Working with f(r)ictions – towards decolonial and speculative practices. A workshop by Sonya Lindfors
Let’s talk about fictions and friction, speculative practices and about why intersectionality is so f***ing hard! Let’s talk about the ghosts haunting our stages and the power of the stage as a miracle making machine!
In the past few years Sonya Lindfors, Cameroonian-Finnish choreographer and artistic director of UrbanApa, has been focusing on decolonial and speculative practices, the potential of dreaming as a restorative and subversive practice. During the two days the topics will be approached through movement, discussions, listening, writing and dreaming. Sonya will introduce participants to themes and concepts of speculative decolonial work and structure this lab with provocations, questions, and collective moving practices, with the aim to co-create a space with participants.
The lab is open to artists, thinkers and activists who are happy to work with movement.
