artist talk 𓇢 𝒩𝒾𝓃𝒶 𝒲𝒾𝒿𝓃𝓂𝒶𝒶𝓁𝑒𝓃

When does the image begin to move, or how to make moving images in space? How can we integrate performance art and theatre, overcoming their traditional boundaries? How can we universalise emotions that come from personal and intimate experiences?
Let’s talk!

about: “Nina Wijnmaalen (Groningen, 1980) directs performances that are somewhere between theatre, dance and performance, using movement, poetry and music. There is beauty in her work, but the darker side of human beings is also never far away: judging others, not being able to communicate and struggling to hold on to love. All elements that she knows all too well from her personal life, and makes part of her work with ruthless honesty.” (By: Luuk Heezen, Kunst is Lang 2020)
Wijnmaalen has developed her working method by participating in workshops by international performers and institutions including Ivo Dimchev (Tanz im August, Berlin 2010) and Trajal Harrell (Impulstanz, Vienna 2013), PAS (Performance Art Studies, Rotterdam 2012) and SNDO (School for New Dance Development, 2013). www.ninawijnmaalen.nl

! This talk is in celebration of the premiere of Nina's new work on the day after the talk in Groningen.
The program of ‘A room full of beating objects’ on June 29 + 30 features three new performance works by Nina Wijnmaalen, Michiel Teeuw & Mylan Hoezen. More info & tickets: performances.weticket.io/a-room-full-of-beating-objects
