SOLID DANCE

In collaboration with Elisa Zuppini

Stills by Paul Sixta

Solid dance is an energetic encounter between the makers Sigrid Stigsdatter Mathiassen and Elisa Zuppini. Departing from the idea of estranging a body part in order to connect this part to another’s body and ultimately become one. Sigrid and Elisa are investigating how they can be a support system to each other as an act of resistance and rebellion of todays individuality and find care in places we don’t usually look for it.
