CODOMESTICATION

A dance project by Krõõt Juurak & Alex Bailey

performed by Lisen & Rut Ellard

As artists and performers, we have more to learn from children than we might be willing to admit. In CODOMESTICATION, artists who are also parents invite their children to become their collaborators in performing and directing the work. The result is a “play” in the most literal sense of the word: adults attempt to join their children in play, trying to be as focused, curious and creative together as they can. In the process, we also explore how to move away from obligation and towards joy. In a theatre context, this kind of playfulness is, of course, also experimental. CODOMESTICATION is at once a family portrait in the form of a live performance and an open situation whose outcome is uncertain.

Gwethilu: Songs for the Dark Lake

&

Andra Människors Rum

CONCERT AND PERFORMANCE BY

TIMOTEO CARBONE HANSSON & KLAS TROLLIUS

An evening with two performances, one after the other, followed by food and time to talk. Doors open at 18:30, so there's room to arrive and look around the shop before we begin.

Gwethilu is a music project by composer, multi-instrumentalist and instrument maker Timoteo Carbone Hansson. It draws on experimental music, early medieval polyphony and traditional Nordic music, and the result is meditative, imaginative and at times danceable. The instruments are a mix of modern and traditional, many of them made for the project and tuned to a scale that doesn't repeat at the octave. That includes a pinewood folk clarinet from Trøndelag, built for Timoteo by the Norwegian instrument maker Karstein Grønnesby. Take a sneak-hear here

A man dressed in black sits in an armchair in a dim room and tries on masks. In Andra Människors Rum Klas Trollius continues his exploration of how we relate to art objects and other things outside ourselves. Performance, text and live music come together to ask how memories attach to rooms, and what happens when you're the intruder in a world that belongs to someone else. The music is by Timoteo, so you may recognise a few sounds. The performance is in Swedish. Sneak-peak from earlier work here at gallery Temporary Stabilisations (also part of Samarbetet)

SAMARBETET BUTIK

Timoteo is selling the record of Gwethilu: Songs for the Dark Lake in Samarbetet Butik. Klas has a publication from Andra Människors Rum on the shelves for sale.

OPEN UNDER PUBLIC EVENTS

Our new shop has opened! Samarbetet butik is a shared shop that pops up in more and more cultural spaces across the region, where small-scale makers swap goods so that local work travels further. You'll find work by local artists, independent publishers, authors, and craftspeople. No fees are taken, so every krona goes to the person who made the thing. Pop in whenever it suits you during the evening. And if you make things and want a spot on the shelves, come talk to us. We refresh them twice a year.
