Site Specific Nordic Project Helsinki

The project puts several questions about the urban room and the body as a carrier of communication. We research cities as space and develop choreographies for dancers and walkers-on in each city. The concept involves choregraphy, dance and movement with inspiration from individual spaces. The project uses the public space as a thematic and narrative resource.

The idea is to experiment with choreographic material and movement in the different nordic surroundings to give several expressions and angles of approach to the presentations. Four nordic capitals have been visited; Stockholm, København, Helsingfors and Oslo.

Site Specific Nordic Project are developed by choregrapher and dancer Emilia Adelöw in cooperation with professional dancers, costume designer, photographer and walkers-on. Each choreography is shown two times in each city, morning and evening
