From intricate patterns of walking, twisting and sudden stops, the work emerges.\u00a0 And so we're gone<\/em> creating a detailed and fascinating web of movement. Through formations, geometries, rituals and everydayness are formed where memories are blown in, or are they fantasies, intensities of a life lived and a life lost.<\/p>\n

Bj\u00f6rn S\u00e4fsten is back at Dansens Hus with a brand new work. The work is based on a repeated pattern of walking, a choreographic approach approached with humour, seriousness, memories and a dose of imagination. The relationship between the infinity of time and our own finite mortality has been at the centre of the process. How are we stopped by a memory that attacks us suddenly? Do we understand the inexorable march of time, for real, or perhaps always too late?<\/p>\n

Bj\u00f6rn S\u00e4fsten \u00e4r dansare och koreograf, ursprungligen fr\u00e5n Ume\u00e5, baserad i Stockholm. S\u00e4fsten intresserar sig f\u00f6r sk\u00e4rningspunkten mellan r\u00f6relse och gest. Mellan de meningsb\u00e4rande och meningsskapande aspekterna av en r\u00f6relse och det som utg\u00f6r en r\u00f6relse fysiskt: r\u00f6relsens mekanik, dynamik och musikalitet. <\/span><\/p>\r\n

S\u00e4fsten \u00e4r intresserad av att utveckla metoder f\u00f6r s\u00e5v\u00e4l analys som produktion som adresserar b\u00e5da dessa tillv\u00e4gag\u00e5ngss\u00e4tt, s\u00e5 att de kan korspollinera f\u00f6r att f\u00f6r\u00e4ndra logiken, eller tillv\u00e4gag\u00e5ngss\u00e4ttet, som dikterar koreografins utveckling. I detta finner S\u00e4fsten ett utrymme f\u00f6r experimenterande \u2013 en plats d\u00e4r gester kan \u00e4ndra inneb\u00f6rd och d\u00e4r kroppen och dess avl\u00e4sningar utmanas. S\u00e4fsten str\u00e4var i sitt arbete efter att byta singularitet mot flerspr\u00e5kighet. Flerspr\u00e5kighet inkluderar humor, identifikation, transformation och kritik. Att studera kroppens f\u00f6rm\u00e5ga att skapa symboler, bilder och situationer ser S\u00e4fsten som ett s\u00e4tt att placera kroppen i en kulturell sf\u00e4r, och att se p\u00e5 r\u00f6relsens konstruktion, mekanik och dynamik \u00e4r ett intressant s\u00e4tt att f\u00f6rs\u00f6ka utmana och utveckla kroppens m\u00f6jligheter, samt att bearbeta sitt r\u00f6relsearv. <\/span><\/p>\r\n

S\u00e4fstens arbete tar alltid sin utg\u00e5ngspunkt inom koreografiomr\u00e5det men inkluderar en m\u00e4ngd olika medier som r\u00f6relse, text, ljud och s\u00e5ng. Verkens teman avg\u00f6r de sceniska uttrycken. Till skillnad fr\u00e5n i sin tidiga karri\u00e4r, d\u00e5 han skapade verk utifr\u00e5n olika filosofiska begrepp, kommer S\u00e4fstens aktuella teman ofta fr\u00e5n hans egna erfarenheter och \u00e4mnen som \u00e4r relevanta f\u00f6r hans eget liv. Inklusive Lost Night (2020), som handlar om f\u00f6rlust, sorg och lyssnande; I sj\u00e4lva verket, skapat tillsammans med Anja Arnquist (2021), en pedagogisk f\u00f6rest\u00e4llning om danskonsten; och det senaste verket And so we're gone (2023), som v\u00e4cker existentiella fr\u00e5gor om livets p\u00e5g\u00e5ende natur. S\u00e4fstens koreografier k\u00e4nnetecknas av den specificitet med vilken dansarna utf\u00f6r koreografin och den intensiva n\u00e4rvaro de befinner sig i. I samverkansskapande prioriteras olika slags n\u00e4rvaroproduktion, vilket S\u00e4fsten st\u00e4ndigt pr\u00f6var nya metoder f\u00f6r. Upprepning \u00e4r ett \u00e5terkommande tema och ett intresse f\u00f6r allt han g\u00f6r \u2013 i skapandet av nya fysiska praktiker och som ett dramaturgiskt redskap. <\/span><\/p>\r\n
