We are proud to announce anther Zygote workshop, proto-performance in a natural setting outside of Stockholm on June 15, 2023. We leave central Stockholm at 11am and you will be back in the city by 5pm. Zygote is project where performance artists, fashion designers, musicians and researchers in foetal development are working together. Zygote is a mobile laboratory that moves between different Swedish urban and natural locations. The work is a collective investigation, where the audience is actively involved in shaping the results.

The process does not result in a final performance, instead the working group conducts a series of ongoing investigations together with different audience groups. We call these proto-performances. This makes the work an ongoing and investigative process. In the Zygote experience a small audience group (6-8 people) travel by minibus to pools, rivers, lakes or to bays of the sea. Here, the audience is invited to “find their way back to” the foetal stage while their bodies are immersed in water. They are led through these experimental water exercises by a choreographer. Together with her they develop new ways of experiencing their own bodies. They do so by investigating movements that the foetus performs during its development in the womb.

If you want to join. Just drop us a line on curatorialmutiny [at]  gmail.com. We will provide you details on what to expect and what to bring. Welcome!

Zygote is supported by Kulturbryggan.
