Malmö Dance Week: A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING

Have you ever dreamed of disappearing into a completely different world for a couple of hours? Here is your chance. A Little Bit of Everything is an evening with dance performances, work in progress showings, concerts and live art. Four hours of dance, music, art and love in every corner of Inkonst.

Stop by Eriks camp site for a coffee or a chat. Get carried away by the voice of Ester or join Maria for some Line dancing. Maybe you just want to have a beer while watching Frida create a rug? Kalli will be waving. Linda and her light designer will start their new project Processing#3. You might also want to grab a bite while watching the residence showing of Benson mixing afro futurism and Krump. As if that wasn’t enough, Festen, the performance that has toured all of Sweden, will end the entire evening in the big room downstairs.

The success “Festen” (The Party) has toured all over Sweden previous times, made guest appearances in Norway, Germany and is now back in Malmö. When Viktor Fröjd together with the the dancers invites an audience to The Party, that audience is welcome to participate in its own way, whether it’s snuggled on a sofa, sneaking stealthily around the room, or dancing right at the centre of the party.

PROCESSING #3 – LINDA HAYFORD (FR) – Work in progress

Linda Hayford starts from her practice Shifting Pop and embarks on a new exploration with lighting designer Xavier Lescat. She sees the evening as an opportunity to experiment with a short-lived material (or not), in complete transparency, both in content, process and transformation.

‍[GN-z33/6°] – BENSON A’KUYIE (GER)  – Work in progress

A singer, dancer and performer, draws inspiration from the ‘Krump’ dance style and Afrofuturism, which shapes his artistic expression. He is assigned the Malmö Dance Week two-week residency 2024 and tonight he will share his process with us.

‍I MI CHOREFTRIA – KALLI (GR) – Work in progress

Kalliopi Tarasidou, known as Kalli, is a dancer and choreographer based in Thessaloniki, Greece, specializing in the Waving dance style. Tonight we get to see a work in progress of Kalli’s new piece that delves into themes of identity, self-discovery and fragility through movement and technology.

SOLO – ERIK LINGHEDE (SE) – Work in progress

Welcome to the start of a new project that I call SOLO where I have become interested in adventure and curiosity as themes for a dance/performance show. The idea has emerged after I had a kind of own adventure-solo-expedition practice with photography as a medium for a few years. With the music as a compass, I have photographed known and unknown environments to look for that feeling in freestyle/improvisation, just like in dance, when everything becomes a timeless flow.

‍MARIA NAIDU (SE) – Line Dance

She has already met around 1,800 people in the municipality and taught them different line dances. On the 29th, she takes the social dance to A Little Bit of Everything.

Gratitude Groove: A Symphony of Senses – ESTHER KIRABO (SE) – Live music

The fact that we can and get to feel an emotion, a sensation – how beautifully cool is that? This performance honors the emotional chapters I’ve experienced this year, celebrating the journey through them and now arriving to joyful gratitude for the ability to feel deeply and fully. Our bodies capacity to sense and experience feeling is magical to me. This performance is a tribute to the magic and beauty to feel.

‍FRIDA RÅDLUND (SE) – Live art

Frida Rådlund (b.1993) is a Malmö-based textile artist from Gothenburg. Her artistry revolves around exploring textile techniques such as tufting, weaving and textile sculpture in connection with themes of tenderness, longing, grief and betrayal. Tonight she will create a big rug.
