HERE:2025 - All those things left behind, for now + 52blue

All those things left behind, for now - Matilda Bilberg (SE)SEPTEMBER 19 / 17:00VITLYCKE - CENTRE FOR PERFORMING ARTS All Those Things Left Behind, For Now proposes a shift of attention, from a forward-oriented gaze to a backward-oriented embrace. Rooted in relationality, backspaces, and the fragility and resilience of our porous bodies, this dance performance engages with its paradox: a solo where multiple bodies occur in one. It tends to the ever-changing reality of today, allowing movements to become voices to become space. With an intimate presence, she, the performer, a vessel of experiences, moves from behind and around. Dances become cast and suspended as she invites the audience to hold hands with our future past.52blue - Francisco Thiago Cavalcanti (PT)SEPTEMBER 19 / 19:00VITLYCKE - CENTRE FOR PERFORMING ARTS A dance solo by Francisco Thiago Cavalcanti, based on the existence of a blue whale called 52Blue. This species, unique in the world, has an anomaly that is still unexplained by science; its sound frequency reaches 52 hertz. An ordinary whale has a frequency of 15 to 20 hertz. Because of this, 52 Blue cannot live with others of its species, as it would be unbearable. Based on this fact, Francisco creates a narrative full of ghosts, loneliness, pain, sadness, illusion, play, enchantment and imagination. The work is based on: the author's personal archives, dances he has already danced, soundscapes, discursive desires he has not yet experienced, as well as the poetic translation of his neurodivergent condition. Francisco is autistic and Francisco is also a blue whale with very particular frequencies.Find out more about artists & performances: www.here-festival.org
