Working with F(r)ictions – towards decolonial, speculative and feminist stages
Let’s talk about fictions and friction, speculative practices and about why intersectionality is so f***ing hard! Let’s talk about the ghosts haunting our stages and the power of the stage as a miracle making machine!
Sonya Lindfors (she/her) is an award winning Cameroonian – Finnish choreographer, facilitator and artistic director of antiracist and counterhegemonic art organisation UrbanApa (www.urbanapa.fi) in Helsinki. During the past years she has been busy with speculative and decolonial practices, summoning the potentiality of art and the stage to challenge the dominant narratives and power structures. In the work Cosmic Latte, presented in the context of Julidans, Lindfors and her team approach a speculative framework: What would a decolonial future look like? How could that be approached on stage?-|- In this 2,5 hour workshop-session participants will be invited to approach the topic at hand, fictions and frictions, by discussing, listening, writing and lightly moving. The workshop will include a small break. Participants are invited to engage in a level that is suitable for them.
The session is antiracist and feminist, please check out the ethical guidelines of Urban Apa.
