In MIRAGE, Helena Franz\u00e9n returns to her great source of inspiration, nature. There are the talking plants, the dancing bodies and the rapture of nature and its inner life. But she also depicts the lurking catastrophe - climate change that threatens our entire existence.<\/p>\n
MIRAGE is a dance performance that explores the complex relationship between humans and nature. It depicts our insecurity, powerlessness and guilt when we try to take responsibility for our planet and approach nature in new ways. The performance digs into the feeling of lack of power and the question of whether our efforts really make a difference. On individual versus collective responsibility<\/p>\n
The evening is an emotional journey through space, music and choreography where you will explore on an emotional level your relationship with nature and the importance of taking responsibility for your own actions.<\/p>\n
MIRAGE is a call for feedback, reflection and action - a reminder that our planet is vulnerable and that it is our common task to take care of it.<\/p>\n
Choreographer Helena Franz\u00e9n on the work:<\/strong><\/p>\n - In nature, I feel that I am a biological being. I am part of these different life forms, their cycles, textures, repetitions and patterns. I get to be part of something timeless, something organic. I can exist out of necessity,' says Helena Franz\u00e9n and continues:<\/p>\n - I think that we humans are not only dependent on all the life that nature gives us in the form of earth, air, water and that allows us to exist. I also want to be able to give something back to nature, by sharing my dance and showing poetry and its necessary existence.<\/p>\n - In every dance, I want to celebrate the intangible, the unexplainable but touching - a kind of hypnotic simplicity... I see myself as a messenger of the body and all it can express. Everything is connected: dance, art, life.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" An emotional reflection on the imbalance of our nature and man's own inability to save it.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":45252,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-44746","dh_event","type-dh_event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","dh_eventcategory-elverket","dh_eventcategory-forestallningar"],"meta_box":{"components":[{"component_type":"artist","embed_group":{"embed_type":"gallery"},"component_artist":{"artist_image":"45223","artist_heading":"Helena Franz\u00e9n","artist_text":"Helena Franzen\u00a0h\u00f6r till de ledande profilerna i den moderna dansen sedan flera decennier.\u00a0Efter 35\u00a0\u00e5rs verksamhet har hon skapat n\u00e4rmare 100 sceniska verk som visats\u00a0nationellt\u00a0och internationellt.\u00a0\u00a02011 och 2014 tilldelades Helena Franz\u00e9n\u00a0Svenska teaterkritikers danspris och Gannevik stipendium.\u00a0Helena Franz\u00e9n \u00e4r en\u00a0eftertraktad l\u00e4rare och mentor\u00a0och hon undervisar regelbundet p\u00e5 m\u00e5nga olika dansutbildningar runtom i\u00a0v\u00e4rlden.\r\n2019\u20132020 presenterade Helena Franz\u00e9n en\u00a0omfattande retrospektiv utst\u00e4llning p\u00e5 Dansmuseet i Stockholm\u00a0Mitt dansande\u00a0liv.\u00a0Utst\u00e4llningen inneh\u00f6ll filmer,\u00a0fotografier, fotob\u00f6cker, intervjuer med\u00a0sakkunniga fr\u00e5n dansf\u00e4ltet, tv\u00e5 skrifter av Cecilia Malmstr\u00f6m Olsson och\u00a0Sinikka Neuhaus och utdrag fr\u00e5n hennes\u00a0sceniska verk.\r\n\r\nHelenas r\u00f6relsev\u00e4rld best\u00e5r och byggs upp\u00a0av olika fysiska landskap.
