“DRYADES & OREIADES – Er en søkelse i overgangen fra antroposentrisk til posthuman tilnærming i håp at effekten vil spre seg i andre aspekter av vårt forbrukerliv. I denne forestillingen har dansere sine kropper blitt re-designet med pileskulpturer for å gi dem en ny hybrid kroppsidentitet. Hovedideen er “hvordan kan disse hybridvesenene sameksistere med andre arter (dyr og fugler) på like vilkår? I motsetning til noen mennesker som anser seg selv som eiere av land og alt liv!”

DRYADES & OREIADES – Is a search in the transition from an anthropocentric to a posthuman approach in the hope that the effect will spread in other aspects of our consumer life. In this performance, dancers’ bodies have been re-designed with wooden sculptures to give them a new hybrid body identity. The main idea is “how can these hybrid beings coexist with other species (animals and birds) on equal terms? Unlike some people who consider themselves the owners of land and all life!”
