A choreographed walk from the perspective of a dog
Throughout history, Skeppsholmen has been a centre for various weapons, kings, amusements and art. For centuries, it has seen strolling and trumpeting, tarring and loving. But if you lower your gaze slightly, somewhere around knee height, a real drama unfolds.
"The Gossip" traces the history of Skeppsholmen through the footsteps of the dog. By noticing the island's seemingly insignificant stories, gravel piles and pee stains, we shift our attention from the grand to the intimate. Most of the world is lickable, if you just give it a chance.
"The Gossip" was developed in Sundsvall during Summer 2020 as part of Public Art Agency Sweden's initiative on art in urban development. This new version of "The Gossip" has been reworked for Lustholmen.
"The Gossip" is choreographed and performed by Stina Nyberg and dogs from a local agility association. The walk takes about 50 minutes and dogs are welcome too.
NB: On Saturday the 10th of June at 16:00 the walk will be performed in English. All other dates and times are conducted in Swedish.
"The Gossip" is presented in collaboration with The Public Art Agency Sweden [Statens konstråd].

Stina Nyberg
Stina Nyberg is a choreographer and dancer with a practice oscillating between sensation, articulation and representation. In her processes she crafts alternate systems of logic in order to construct the world differently, and act accordingly. Often working in collaboration with others she aims to include how to work into what we work with.
Stina works both independently and collectively, in temporary collaborations with theatres, institutions and other animals. She has made works on commission from Cullberg, Norrdans and Statens konstråd, as well as series of independent works dealing with questions of power, gender, interdependence and magic. She is a member of the artist run organisations höjden, Fylkingen and Interim kultur and currently part of the artistic cohort of Rose Choreographic School based at Sadler’s Wells in London.
