Once There Was A Forest

NO BODY – Konstantina Skalionta

Dancehouse Lefkosia

A performance about a world gradually diminishing, dedicated in memory of a lost forest.

A performer on stage creates an ever-changing landscape using natural and man-made materials, and invites you to look at how fragile and temporary the world has become.

If we look closely at the materials we choose to use and surround ourselves with, what will they reveal about ourselves, our history and the world we live in today?

The work is based on the artistic research Object Animated (Dance House Limassol, Moving the New residency programme 2020), exploring ways of animating materials, and how these can be used as extensions of the performing human body.
