Een seance van paranormale dans en hypnotiserende black metal

 

MEDIUM is a ghost performance in which Núria Guiu dances to the music of Stephen O’Malley/SUNN O))). The performance is about how the body is haunted by movements from personal, cultural and virtual archives. The ghost is partly a metaphor for movements from other times and dimensions that return and take up residence in our bodies, but it is also understood as the act of creating in itself, from the invisible realm to its physical manifestation into a performance, which is invoked or brought to life after its creative process death.

The performance is a joint creation of choreographers Ingri Fiksdal (Oslo) and Núria Guiu (Bcn). The musical arrangement and spatialization are by Stephen O'Malley, a member of the legendary black metal group Sunn O))) with music from their album Pyroclasts. Costume and space design are by Ronak Moshtaghi, and lighting by Phillip Isaksen.
