Reap - Repeat (Collections in Sjönevad) is a multidisciplinary work that incorporates music, poems, movement and drawing as a mean to explore our memories and embedded patterns, but also how we can find ways to reach elevation and ecstasy, that might as well be described as a spell. We have been exploring patterns, repetition and layering of the work, as ways to create different types of spell. The group is interested in investigating what makes the spirit and body becoming elevated and go in to trance or ecstasy.
We present our work on July 31st, 18.00 at the event VARDAGSRUMMET, held at Wu Art Space, Sjönevad. (The event was free and open to all)

What do you get if you bring Eine Kleine Nachtmusik by Mozart to a disco? Well let us introduce you to our newest video to the unfinished and unreleased song:" Do You Wanna Dance?!" 😹 The film was recorded during the Fågelbo artresidency at Sjönevad, Sweden together with the artists Nathalie Alfonso and Jenny Larsson and the community of neighbors that live in Sjönevad. 12 characters were dancing in front of the camera to a song they never heard before. They dressed up in our stageclothes and we are grateful for their trust and beautiful moves! The song is inspirerande by Scandinavian mythology and tells the story of a Skogsrå (Huldra) that is borde in the night when all of the animals have fallen to sleep. She hears music and seas lights and would like to go out dancing amongst the humans but she is a mythical creature after all and have a tail! will you have the courage to dance with a Huldra if she showed up at your party? 😀
