Duration: 75 min.<\/b><\/p>\n

ATTENTION: The performance includes loud sounds and smoke.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The performance is part of the Baltic Dance Platform programme.<\/b><\/p>\n

In “Ash, horizon, riding a house” N\u00fcganen and her two collaborators reflect on <\/span>identity and belonging as fluid constructs, shaped by weather and place. By facing <\/span>the instability of our environment, the audience is invited to consider how we might <\/span>belong to a landscape that cannot stay the same.<\/span><\/p>\n

Responding to a world where land, language, and folklore have become commodities, N\u00fcganen, Sova and Kisling surround themselves with ice. The audience is invited to tend to ice-objects, while dripping ice panels become the center of gravity. <\/span>The performance unfolds as a series of chain reactions that N\u00fcganen threads as a narrator. <\/span>She proposes multiple perspectives on locality by morphing through characters like a real estate agent, an auctioneer and a tourist.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAsh, horizon, riding a house\u201d explores how identity, as something shaped by <\/span>geography, can open up space for fluidity, movement, and transformation. In the <\/span>backdrop of constant dripping, the expectation of permanence is fully abandoned. <\/span>After ice there is water, and melting becomes an act of resistance: against control <\/span>and the desire to conquer.<\/span><\/p>\n
