Art from the vague moment of the relationship with nature
A multi-year, rotating event that changes with the performance venues, Hiuskarvan varassa will be experienced for the first time in the summer of 2023 in Kuopio. The event will take place on 19-20 June in VR-Konepaja. In its first event, the Roskakatos collective recycles Tsuumi Dance Theatre’s pieces MARTAT and We Called Her Bertha as well as the free field productions lollollollollollollol, Matriarkka and OMPELUSEURAT into an eventful entity in a common landscape.
Hiuskarvan varassa is an experiential performance event where nature is built from discarded objects and things in a gritty concrete environment. Examining the wall between man and nature, the ensemble plays with scales and the collision of organic and built nature. The experiential event, even reaching dystopian dimensions, invites the viewer to step into the vague moments of the Finnish relationship with nature and ask themselves “Am I nature?”
The Roskatos collective recycles performing art and the resources used for it, refines discarded goods and trash into interesting spaces into layered entities, and spreads the good news of recycling while uncompromisingly making art for the public.
