Meadow, meadow, meadow

13-26 March, Zodiak, Center for New Dance

Meadow, meadow, meadow is a triptych by choreographers Elina Pirinen and Maria Saivosalmi, French-Palestinian performance artist Jassem Hindi and Irish theatre artists Ruairí Donovan and Cathy Walsh.

A dance that is an axe for the frozen sea inside us, relentlessly making ritual objects for a tribe that doesn’t exist, a lingering sentence on one horse and seven hearts, a fanfare heralding a renewed ethos of intimacy.

Together with lighting designer Heikki Paasonen, the heralds and surprise emsemble founded for the triptych create a delicate avalance of peculiar bodies, voices and landscapes. The weight carried is the perception of all that is essential for the human condition, like a slow storm in the solar plexus.

Meadow, meadow, meadow is produced by Zodiak – Center for New Dance with the support of HIAP.
