Insula aims to dive into organic relations of space within and between bodies, where they meet complex identities, natures, movements, clothes and sounds. Transfiguring strangers are constantly defaced or obscured in dance. The space becomes a field of attention and the audience takes an active part in landscape dramaturgy. The bodies that we inhabit, made of seventy percent water, unstable materials and containers, are in constant shift. The fictional and natural merge into affective scenes to challenge the sense of physicality, belonging, the other and intimacy.
Curated by Merilin Talumaa (EE), Maija Rudovska (LV) and Justė Kostikovaitė (LT), the project is a collaboration between artists, curators and non-profit organisations from Marseille and the Baltic countries. It will unfold across a series of exhibitions, performances, screenings, workshops, lectures and walks in Marseille from end of August until November, 2020.
