Mystery 172 A Dancing Journey
project
Description
Mystery 172 A Dancing Journey was a site specific performance presented after a two-day dance and skateboarding workshop in December 2023 at ARKOPOLIS.
Through an open call, the Still Pilgrim Paradox team invited teenagers to a two-day dance and skateboard workshop on December 9 and 10, 2023. Participants were exposed to contemporary dance, acrobatics, street dance and skateboarding, both through structured exercises and guided improvisation.
With the continuous support of the animators and the collaboration and interaction of the participants, a small choreographic composition was created that united the different movement practices, which was presented on January 6, 2024, immediately after the performance of the group Still Pilgrim Paradox. It was about a site specific performance, in which contemporary dance met street dance and skateboarding. The central thematic axis was the highlighting of the diversity and at the same time the unifying elements of people, supporting the idea that any place can be turned into a dance stage and anyone can dance, bringing their own background, their own knowledge and desires. What matters is meeting, communicating, sharing, dancing.
Mystery 172 A Dancing Journey was implemented with the kind support of Flux Laboratory.
