Centering around ‘circluding’ dance, thecarrierbag festival 2017 is a gathering of local and international dance artists, hosted by Danseatelier and curated by Emilia Gasiorek, Sandra Liaklev Andersen and Karis Zidore.
This festival is a carrier bag. A bag to carry knowledge across bodies, texts, temporalities, telepathies and more in order to re-activate, re-use and re-develop new knowledges. The festival as a bag proposes a way to ‘circlude’, encircle, gather, wrap and curl around dance. It is a wish to use ‘circlusion’, this awesome and newly invented word, to describe a relation to dance.
Thecarrierbag festival has been thought around two texts: Ursula Le Guin’s ‘The Carrier Bag Theory of Fiction’ and Bini Adamczak’s ‘ On Circlusion’. It sets off from feminist ways of being in relation to dance and unfurls a plethora of possibilities.
