Ep #5.2 Gradual shifts in Time | Worlding Podcast
Description
Milla Koistinen creates dance works that often evoke a feeling of spaciousness and calm in the spectator. She was born and raised in a small cabin in the Finnish forest where in winter the main sources of light outside were the moon, stars and Northern Lights and in summer there was so much light that it never got dark. What she noticed was a slow transformation that she applies to her choreographic works, where things shift gradually over time.
In this episode we explore her recent collaborative work "Terrain” - an immersive installation for one visitor at a time and "On a Clear Day" - a dance solo inspired by the artworks of Canadian born painter Agnes Martin. We focus especially on rhythm and understanding how certain worlds can linger inside of us even after we have physically moved on.
To end, Milla guides listeners through a short movement journey inviting us to center our attention on breathing, on listening, on moving and then simply on standing still.
