Four dancers, from different backgrounds, allow the changing and unpredictable world that cultural workers currently find themselves in to influence and inform the process. The four put their experiences together and explore where their experiences overlap and what separates them. The group learns from each other and lets the work develop organically until there is a shared landscape and they can drop in and out of each other's worlds.
"Landscape" shows that we are all individual, unique and complex - but always part of the same huge community.
The audience meets the dancers in a flexible landscape. You choose whether you want to take in the whole or follow the journey of a single dancer. William Rickman's soundtrack is the fifth actor - an energy that both leads and escorts you on the journey.
– I see 'Landscape' as a house built by many people. I am the architect, but when you walk through the house you find many fingerprints and see that the house was built with various different techniques and traditions, each representing an individual path through history," says Ludvig Daae.
