LISA JANBELL<\/strong>
\nDEAP LEAP<\/strong>
\nStudio presentation as part of the \u201836 Hours of Dance\u2019 event on 24 October, 10.00\u201314.00<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Deep Leap invites the audience into a choreographic soundscape where movement and sound merge to create a sensual, constantly shifting atmosphere. Using body-worn microphones and video mapping that captures the dancers\u2019 movements, the dancers modulate and generate the soundscape in real time.<\/p>\n

The work unfolds in a borderland between choreography and sound, between the digital and the physical, and explores how choreography can create sound within a landscape in a state of constant transformation, where figures, energies and states appear, dissolve and begin anew.<\/p>\n

Deep Leap aims to offer a hypnotic and somatic experience in which listening becomes a physical sensation and perception is gently unsettled. A shared space for presence, resonance and imagination that navigates our technological present without losing sight of the human, the physical or the spiritual.<\/p>\n

\r\n
\r\nHer practice rests upon many years of dedication to ceremonial and ritual performance, rooted in collective processes. Janbell\u2019s work is genre transcending, shifting between contexts and collaborations, and draws knowledge from the social dance principles of the techno subculture alongside ceremonial practices. \r\n
\r\n
\r\nUsing the body as a vessel for ritual and collective memory, she seeks choreography and performance to open pathways to the transcendental and devotional, to the mysteries and divinatory, spaces where the negotiation between the individual and the collective is both unfolding and dissolving. \r\n
\r\n
\r\nShe invites audiences into provisional places she herself longs to inhabit, where belonging is desired rather than given, and where bodies might rest, be seen, and meet in shared presence, at once vulnerable and unyielding, meditative and intense.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nIn recent years Janbell\u2019s trajectory has shifted from techno driven ritual formats in underground and club contexts toward somatic dance practices intertwined with sound technology and live electroacoustic music. \r\n
\r\n
\r\nHer works have been presented across Sweden, Europe and Cuba, at venues including MDT, Dansens Hus, Riksteatern, Norbergfestival, Augenblick Mal Festival (Berlin), and Teatro Raquel Revuelta (Havana). She has also created commissioned works, such as choreography for the Studio Barnhus A\/V show at Son\u00e1r (Barcelona) and Way Out West (Gothenburg).\r\n
\r\n
\r\nHer latest projects include Deep Leap (2025\u20132026), a choreographic sound work where movement generates live sound through body worn technology and microphones on stage, DEVOTED (2024), a collaboration with composer Dijle Neva Yigitbas bridging live music and choreography through a devotional practice, and SWEET & STICKY (2023), a site specific choreographic work with live electroacoustic music created with architect Jelena Mijanovic.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nJanbell studied Cuban folk dance at El Instituto Superior de Arte in Havana, pursued further dance studies at UFBA in Brazil, and holds a degree in cultural anthropology from Stockholm University. Since 2010 Janbell has been part of the performance duo and music project Dos Ok\u00e9 with Camilla Sivam, creating electronic prayers in ritual formats, the cradle of her works.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nJanbell creates 1-2 dance productions per year.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nIn October 2024 Lisa was granted a ten year working grant from the Swedish Arts Grants Committee."}},{"component_type":"wysiwyg","component_wysiwyg":"
