A multi-sensory dance exhibition on the theme of recycling and humans impact on nature.
The earth is an amazing planet with rich nature life, gigantic forests and huge oceans. Unfortunately, it is not footprints that man leaves behind in these fascinating places.
In the dance exhibition Queens Of Unwanted Things, we walk into the world of recycling. From the top of the active volcano El Fuego in Guatemala, across the west coast of Finland and into the depths of Sala silver mine in Sweden. Through colourful photographic series and poignant short films, cinematic music and costume installation, a unique place is created for in-depth dialogue about human impact, where trash is transformed into innovation.
Why Queens? It’s not just things that count as trash when they no longer have a perfect appearance. The production focuses on highlighting knowledge, ability and inner value, by giving space to female dancers of different ages, body shapes and from different cultural backgrounds.
