RESIDENCY AT JILLAT SAMISKT DANSCENTER
Our biggest thanks to
@jimmysworkaway and
@livaira for supporting our research project âĂâ. They kindly opened the doors to their beautiful space at
@samisktdanscenter , allowing us to explore, create, and dance over the past two weeks.
What a journey it has been!
Our time in Vuollerim was full of moments weâll never forget:â¨â¨ Watching the beautiful performance âSea, SĂĄmi seeâ by
@katarinaskarlisa and
@johansarajr .â¨â¨ Learning about SĂĄmi culture and history, and experiencing how
@livaira shared it with children, through dance and storytelling in the performance âNĂĽjden och den vita renenâ.â¨â¨ Meeting
@essandling - connecting through our arts, being drawn whilst dancing parts of our project, seeing her inspiring atelier, and hearing the story of the local river.â¨â¨ Teaching two dance groups twice. Sharing joy, laughter, and movement with the most amazing kids.
⨠Getting to perform a first draft of âĂâ, and receiving valuable feedback from locals.
⨠Travelling back and forth by train through breathtaking landscapes.
But first and foremost, the countless hours in the studio, working on our project âĂâ.
Once again, a huge thank you to
@samisktdanscenter for supporting our work. We leave Vuollerim with full hearts, tired legs, and a thousand new ideas. đđşâ¨
We hope to see you all again soon đ˛đ
