Artistic ResidencyResource

An EBA artistic residency at Skånes Dansteater (Sweden)  

Three performers are arranged frontally on a stage, standing and sitting still as if posing for a formal portrait. A deep red velvet curtain fills the background, creating a theatrical setting. At the center, one performer sits in a wheelchair, facing forward, with hands resting together on their lap. They wear a light blue shirt, a warm-toned checkered skirt, orange tights, and dark sneakers. On either side of them stand two performers, both upright and composed. The performer on the left wears a dark blue long-sleeved jumpsuit with a light belt, arms relaxed at their sides. The performer on the right wears a brown jacket, a light shirt, and a green skirt, standing with feet firmly on the ground. To the far left of the scene, slightly separated from the group, a small wooden table holds a lit candle and a bowl of fruit.

Skånes Danseteater: MAY FALL

DossierResource

What we reveal. What we hide. The fear of falling. MAY FALL is about lowering your guard, daring to fall, and risking your heart. It is about love.

Two performers share a close physical composition on a dark, empty stage. One performer lies on their back on the floor, facing upward, with their head turned slightly to the side. They wear a short-sleeved patterned top and dark trousers. Their legs are bent and lifted, resting across the seat and frame of a wheelchair. The second performer is positioned within the wheelchair, their body arched backward so that their upper back and head extend beyond the seat, hovering close to the floor. Their arms hang loosely, palms open. They wear a long-sleeved dark top and textured trousers. The wheelchair stands at the center of the image, acting as a shared structure that connects both bodies. The performers’ positions create a continuous line, balancing weight, contact, and stillness. The background is black, and the floor is a smooth grey, drawing attention to the bodies, their connection, and the quiet intensity of the moment.
