Sigrid Stigsdatter Mathiassen (DK)

In Cold Hawaii, dance artist Sigrid Stigsdatter Mathiassen retreats to the island of heartbreaks. She explores the vast emptiness, the territory of pleasure and the realm of pauses and silence after something breaking down. Like a heartbreak that builds up, only to break down again, she creates a character that breathes, rises and disappears. Through movement and sound, words and songs, she negotiates between harsh realities and the soft worlds of her imagination.
Cold Hawaii is a myth and a paradox where fiction becomes the map from where reality can be reimagined.
There are two performances of Cold Hawaii on June 30: at 13:30 and 17:00.
