Equation of Imagination is a new creation by Emmanuelle Lê Phan and Elon Höglund that explores the opposition between chaos and logic, in art as in life itself.
Exploring the prehistoric nature of humanity, DINO presents a stoic environment inhabited by two performers wearing work uniforms and semi-realistic T-Rex masks. The piece delves into themes of the human condition and greed in today’s society, set to a soundtrack blending chamber music with a robotic voice. Inspired by the events of our everyday lives, this work is a playful yet stoic depiction of the world we live in.
DINO is at once physical, repetitive, and explosive, while also tender and measured. Throughout the piece—marked by radical shifts in dynamics and tone—the characters gradually reveal themselves through their empathy and vulnerability.
Seven Poems From An Unwritten Book Of Poetry is a research project on movement through the themes of past, present, and future. A liberation of images and stories—both ancient and yet to come—this solo explores what we have always been, what we are now, and what we are becoming. Set to baroque music, the piece flows from scene to scene, revealing poems that reflect on the passage of time, a life lived in an aging and ever-changing body.
Seven Poems From An Unwritten Book Of Poetry questions what has become precious and what we have chosen to let go.
A bold exploration of the experience of chronic pain, Pain and I is a moving testimony of the artist’s lived experience. This solo celebrates the rich complexity of life and poses a central question: What can pain teach us?
Through the experimental dance of this powerful and autobiographical work, performed to an original classical composition by Alicia Jane Turner, the artist invites us to reflect on what it means to care for our bodies, ourselves, and each other during moments of both personal and collective pain.
Presented by a disabled queer creative team—Hopfinger (she/her) and Turner (they/them)—Pain and I centers their experience within the choreographic work. In a commitment to accessibility and disability-led arts, the piece will also be shared as a digital score and an audio work.
