Kaja Lin

Graduated at @visjabaletnasola with Broader Space, an original dance piece, after many years on stage. 7 years abroad. 4 years of study 😅 A few more gray hairs, a couple of burnouts, and Eri Mina in my lap while studying. No regrets — just a strong will to keep exploring my inner world while staying open to the world around me. Always searching for inspiration.

Broader Space was created in 2024 and has been performed several times since. The work responds to the current global landscape while simultaneously exploring our inner worlds. Through this dual focus, it invites a deeper understanding of ourselves and others, fostering empathy and new forms of collaboration. Next performance : Plesni Teater Ljubljana, 7th of May 2026. @jmcreatoris @blazcelarec Žiga Golob Dramaturgy: @marsoriviere Co-production @plesniteaterljubljana #dance #theatre #ljubljana #choreography #space Photo: @ankasimoncic

ORBITA / Verse II - teaser ​ In December 2024, Slovene dance artist Kaja Lin J. Avguštin and French/UK-based Mickaël ‘Marso’ Rivière collaborate on a research residency in London, generously supported by the Slovene Consulate. It is their first collaboration outside Ljubljana, where their initial collaboration began in 2023 with research and creation of the dance theatre works Orbita (2023) and Broader Space (2024). Together with Film Maker Ben Williams they choose to end their residency by plotting a spontaneous filming session on location, inspired by their constant search for the opposite self and topics on foreign places we make our homes, when traveling or when displaced. They dwell and shape their narrative close to the iconic South Bank Centre and Waterloo station. Drawn to the subway tunnels and paths, often sheltering homeless people from the elements and hidden below the busy streets of the area where on average, 250,000 people commute through every day, the site is reminiscent of longing, light and shadows. It is a first collaboration with British composer Seirian Griffiths who designed the score for this short film. Produced by @marsoriviere and @kajalin Filmed and edited by @benny_wynn Ben Williams Music by Seirian Griffiths @5eirian - #danceshorts #dancescreening #filmshort #shortfilm #dancevideo

Točke izginjanja / Vanishing points. Dance-puppet performance. Body in the performance becomes an archive of the past, a space where hidden and forgotten inner landscapes are liberated. These are revealed in fragments, textures and movements - traces that can be perceived but not easily explained. The artists' starting point is Lucija Stupica's poetry collection Vanishing Points and the philosophical tradition that understands memory as something both impressionable and elusive. The central concept of the vanishing point is a hybrid of the psychological, philosophical and visual fields, a space on the edge of the perceptible, where the viewer intangibly co-creates meaning. @maja.kunsic @ajda.r @smrekarmitja Gregor Kuhar @zala.kalan @lucijastupicaenbohm Co-production: @cankarjevdom #choreography #danceontour #performing #dancefestival #puppetdance

Plesalka in koreografinja 𝗞𝗮𝗷𝗮 𝗟𝗶𝗻 ter lutkovna ustvarjalka 𝗠𝗮𝗷𝗮 𝗞𝘂𝗻𝘀̌𝗶𝗰̌ sta se prvič srečali v skupni raziskavi spomina, na odru pa skupaj gradita intimen, občutljivo uglašen prostor, kjer se skozi gib, animacijo in materialnost predmetov počasi izrisujejo drobci njunih osebnih spominov – krhki, izmuzljivi in globoko vtisnjeni v telo. Navdušeno občinstvo je ustvarjalki na odru in celotno ekipo nagradila z dolgim, bučnim aplavzom. 👏👏👏👏 ******* Avtorici, ustvarjalki in izvajalki: Maja Kunšič in Kaja Lin J.

Kako hitro se točke spominjanja preobrazijo v točke izginjanja? Predstava poteka v prepletu gibanja in animacije, v kateri se telo in predmet prepletata kot enakovredna nosilca zgodbe. 📅27. in 28. decembra ob 20. uri 📍Dvorana Duše Počkaj 🎫14, 12* EUR Avtorici, ustvarjalki, izvajalki ter producentki: Maja Kunšič in Kaja Lin J.

Last two weeks before our new dance-puppet piece premieres in @cankarjevdom . https://www.cd-cc.si/kultura/gledalisce-in-ples/tocke-izginjanja It is a big privilege to be able to transform a part of our life into a live creation. And as we are never sure how the performance will read we are trying to stay true to ourselves. First inspiration for Vanishing Points came from a poetry collection of Lucija Stupica with the same title. And we countinued exploring our inner world of memories from there. @maja.kunsic / Zadnja dva tedna pred premiero naše nove plesno-lutkovne predstave v @cankarjevdomu . Velika čast je, da lahko del svojega življenja pretoriva v živo stvaritev. In ker nikoli nisva prepričani, kako se bo predstava brala, se trudiva ostati zvesti sebi. Prvi navdih za predstavo Točke izginjanja je prišel ob branju pesniške zbirke Lucije Stupica. In od tam sva le nadaljevali z raziskovanjem najinega notranjega sveta. Sveta spominov. #predstava #ples #dancepuppetdance #choreography #performance #theater #premiera #ljubljana #poezija #poetry
