peripheral dancing: a peripheral essay and a peripheral toolbox
Stockholm University of the Arts, Department of dance.

Abstract [en]

This text is the second part of a Bachelor's degree project, dealing with the artistic research and presentation, peripheral dancing, conducted as the first part of the project. The research started from a question: Can one challenge, rethink and explore the peripheries, centres, and orientations of and through one's dancing? The work is perceived through the context of Stockholm University of The Arts, specifically through the lens of the BA in Dance Performance programme. In choosing this context, the essay looks at teachers, classes, authors, and theories encountered in the programme. The different aspects of the research, the physical, sounding, and writing practice, are discussed in dialogue with two main references: Queer Phenomenology: Orientations, Objects, Others, a book by British-Australian writer and scholar Sara Ahmed, and We Should All Be Dreaming: Words Make Worlds, a publication by feminist art community UrbanApa. After describing the physical presentation of the research, the essay questions how one can rethink the peripheries and centres of the stage. Furthermore, the work is placed into the context of artists and artworks challenging who and what art is placed in institutions in Sweden and other Nordic countries. The second part of this text offers a toolbox, diving into the physical research of the project, describing scores and materials, as well as references and influences.
