On Earth I’m Done | Islands at tanzquartierwien in Vienna
23-25 MAR
In On Earth I’m Done: Islands, the audience is transported to a place torn out of the conventional space-time continuum. Orbiting the conflicts of beauty and danger, existence must be rebuilt from scratch and living learnt anew. Elementary logics and irregular intelligences are being reborn; life passes between mineral, vegetal, animal, human and machinic forms. Islands is a performance which imagines an alternate order of organization, a state of exception, quarantined from the natural world. Here, replication becomes a mode of survival and dancing a weapon.

[VOLTA] classes with Leah Katz at Diorama
Hosted by @leaaaahkatz teaching Vinyasa Yoga. More information on how you can join us for these classes in bio.
Leah is a lover of movement in all of its glorious forms. Through her work as a dancer, she discovered yoga initially as an enhancement to her existing training. In many ways it has since become the basis of her approach to understanding and activating the body and the mind. She has fallen more in love with the practice the deeper she explores. Following a creative and flowing technique of Vinyasa yoga, there is a focus on safe and optimal alignment, exploring sensation, and bringing awareness to the body's infinite possibilities.

On Earth I’m Done | Mountains & Islands by Cullberg
17-18.02 at Teatro Canal, Sevilla Spain
‚In On Earth I’m Done, the audience is transported to a place where all sense of space and time has vanished: a creation story and a post-apocalyptic search for humanity. Swedish-Dutch choreographer Jefta van Dinther creates hallucinatory performances in extremely tight design and an ultra-physical, energetic dance style... On Earth I’m Done is an „archaic-futuristic“ diptych that consists of the solo Mountains and Islands, a group work for thirteen dancers, made for and by the Swedish company Cullberg to which Van Dinther has been connected as an artist since 2013. Mountains and Islands are both geographical references, the performances leading the viewer through landscapes full of dark, hallucinatory images in a conceptual performance about transformation.‘

On Earth I'm Done | Mountains by Cullberg | Tomorrow at Zodiak, Helsinki
In Mountains, Van Dinther tackles the question of how to be and stay in love with our ever-changing world. Through an expulsion of words, both familiar and foreign, the performer on stage acts as a conduit, lamenting on behalf of others. Their being unravels in the nexus between the physical, biological and anthropological – between gravitational forces, instinct and desire.
"Mountains is relentless in its form. Without depicting anything concrete tangible, the work listens to urges, longings, fears and suspicions that vibrate beneath the surface of homo sapiens - our fragile relationship with a world that constantly risks slipping out of our hands. It is a journey into the unknown interior - in search of a (spiritual) core - that stuns, captures and fascinates." – Svenska Dagbladet
In Helsinki the work is performed by dancer Marco da Silva Ferreira.

[LINK] mentorship in Costume Design | Lena Böckmann
Jefta van Dinther is pleased to announce the recipient of this year’s [LINK] mentorship in Costume Design as Lena Böckmann. Lena will be under supervision of the mentor and costume designer Cristina Nyffeler, dramaturg Maja Zimmermann and choreographer Jefta van Dinther.
Lena Böckmann is a costume designer and performer, working mainly within performing arts with a distinct focus in robotics. Coming from practical backgrounds of costume design and physical computing, her work is a playful hybrid of these two worlds. Her practice sees experiments between costume, e-textiles, wearable objects and robot scenography, allowing her to dive deeper into the digital arts and object centered theatre. She investigates these approaches sensually, via touching, hearing, feeling, smelling, thinking, crafting, dreaming and discourse; such themes that are inherently human and centric to her research in sci-fi, feel-fi and touch-fi.

Leonce und Lena | Directed by Ulrich Rasche
Premiere at Deutsches Theatre Berlin
In connection with Büchner's pamphlet Der Hessische Landbote (The Hessian Courierr) and in a first-time collaboration with choreographer Jefta van Dinther, director Ulrich Rasche examines the comedy Leonce und Lena (1836) for its political content: as a fundamental social analysis and radical critique of the self-reference and ignorance of the ruling class. While she holds all the levers in her hand to change social conditions in favour of the exploited, she excuses her inaction with the hopelessness of personal action, the impossibility of influencing the world and the fundamental lostness in the universe.
