PERFORMING ARTS FROM THE NORTHERN LATITUDES. (NORWAY / ICELAND)
and yes I said yes I will yes
Choreography: Caroline Eckly & Marcelo Evelin
Inspired by the myth of Medusa, performer Caroline Eckly invites the audience to ceremony in a timeless space, where they can witness a body in transformation. Medusa was a woman who – as a punishment for being raped – was turned into a monster that could kill with her gaze. The gaze serves as a starting point; the eyes which mirror-like reflect the violence of the world and catch and absorb the gaze of others. Eckly keeps her eyes closed for the whole duration of the piece, cancelling the individual gaze, offering a dive into the inside, a call for imagination.
