BODIES IN REBELLION
Zufit Simon
(2024)
After
the successful production “Radical Cheerleading”,
Zufit Simon continues her research into
choreographed forms of protest. Her choreography explores
the ambivalence of bodies that
act powerfully but are open and vulnerable:
oscillating between power and vulnerability. How do rebellious bodies form and
what strategies are needed to question power
relations?

RADICAL CHEERLEADING
Zufit Simon
(2022-24)
Codes of cheerleading,
known from athletic competitions, are used and
subverted in this production to convey
its own messages. Glamour, glitter and a
mix of various slogans are elements of
this joyful, ironic
alternative to militant forms of
protest.

SIORY
Ola Winnicka
(2020)
The
videos by SIORY, created as part of Magiczne zaangażowanie / Magical Engagement exhibition (18.09-31.10.2020 in
Galeria Miejska Arsenał/Poznań), is a choreographic-sound story about tenderness and
sisterly solidarity, giving rhythm to a world in pandemic. Siory is a
romantic revolutionism, Joanna d'Arc in a nostalgic, urban-Polish-Mud
landscape. The first album "SERCE/HEART" was recently released by Sejf
& Dym. Apart from music, an important element of SIORY's work is choreography and costumes.
