Oct 4+5. Public presentation: Punk´s not dead / Nefeli Oikonomou (SE/GR)
Is punk dead or not? The question is the starting point for this performance by greek born choreografer and dancer Nefeli Oikonomou.
Since the rise of the punk movement in the mid-70s, there has been a variety of manifestations and subgenres that has built a rich vocabulary of bodily expressions, manifestations and identities that act against dominant norms. Through non-fixed sexualities, unpredictable identities and non-conformative choreographic tools, the work does not present a stereotypical image of punk, but allows the participants to deepen in new ways of listening and feeling. A performance that explores other ways of listening besides aesthetic hierarchies and moral reformulations. To be able to ’listen’ to the body in opposition that does not want to follow trends in a world that asks whether punk is dead or not and counts likes.
This is the first phase of the project that will continue in 2020.
