– We speak the same language but in different art forms, says Johanna Knutsson
A body in resistance, three worlds of sound. In Three Ways of Averting the Evil Eye, choreographer and dancer Frédéric Gies joins forces with electronic musicians Fiedel, Johanna Knutsson, and Rivet. The musicians have composed a part each for the piece, which have then been interpreted through dance.
– That format creates a different experience than my other work, which definitely creates an element of surprise for the viewer, says Frédéric Gies.
The work unfolds as a triptych, three distinct chapters where movement and sound enter into intimate, unpredictable dialogue. The relationship between music and dance isn’t just thematic, it’s elemental. The piece also carries an undercurrent of protest and resistance.
– Art in itself is resistance. A hotbed for the dissentient and disobedient. For me personally it's also a way to cope with the shittiness of it all (life, humanity, existence etc.), says Mika Hallbäck Vuorenpää.
