Is dance a language? And if so, how does it speak? This piece explores the compatibility between dance and language, using rhetoric devices as compositional tools. With the stage as page, the choreographic writing unfolds a physical discourse with its own syntax, grammar and vocabulary. But what conditions these dance utterances? And what does it mean to read dance? In other words, if we are not seeking meaning, how do we sense the making of sense when watching this dance?
With wits, charm and sophistication Ingrid Berger Myhre’s relativizing take on “dance” as we know it, comes together in unpretentious and humorous performances. In her new performance "In Other Words", she continues her play with the capacities and shortcomings of language – using it as a scaffold for dance as poetic expression.
Ingrid Berger Myhre is a Norwegian choreographer and dancer based in Brussels. She holds an MA in Choreography; Research and Performance from ex.e.r.ce at the Choreographic Centre in Montpellier and later deepened her project literacy in dance at the Research Studio’s at P.A.R.T.S from ’17-’18.
Since her studies, Ingrid has developed her work as associate artist at Dansateliers Rotterdam, and from 2019 - 2020 with the support of the Dutch Performing Arts Fund’s Nieuwe Makers Regeling. Her solo BLANKS (2017) and the duet PANFLUTES AND PAPERWORK (2019), a collaboration with Lasse Passage were both selected for Aerowaves, and has toured a number of venues in Europe and in Norway.
Ingrid's work is supported by the Advancing Performing Arts Project (APAP) network and Caravan Production in Brussels.
