Samlingen

Samlingen means the collection or the assembly, and is a choreographic project that facilitates a common interest in choreography and feminism intertwined with dance history. We, Amanda Apetrea (SE), Nadja Hjorton (SE), Halla Ólafsdóttir (IS), Stina Nyberg (SE) and Zoë Poluch (CA) initiated Samlingen in Sweden in 2013. In Sweden, Samlingen has collaborated with the Cullberg Ballet, Kulturhuset Stockholm, Post Dance Conference and publication, and internationally participated in Works at Work-festival (DK), Batard festival and publication (BE), and Danske Dansehistorier (Danish Dance Histories, DK). Samlingen is currently working on a tour with the National touring theatre of Sweden that will lead them to four different places in Sweden where they will choreograph durational pieces with local artists.
