Konstnären Signe Johannessen presenterar filmen "Swamp Posthumous", en samproduktion av Cullberg och Accelerator. I verket förenas Johannessen och Cullbergs dansare Agnieszka Sjökvist Dlugoszewska, Eszter Czédulás och Unn Faleide i ett intresse för hybrida kroppar, historiska omskrivningar och människans relation till djur, både de som vandrar på jorden och de magiska.
Filmen visades på Accelerator 25 augusti 2021 och efterföljdes av ett samtal med Signe Johannessen, forskaren Christina Fredengren och dansare från Cullberg. -
Recorded on location at Balingsta Gård in Orlångens nature reserve in Huddinge, Benjamin Pohlig meets with artist Signe Johannessen and Cullberg dancers Agnieszka Sjökvist Dlugoszewska and Eszter Czédulás for a talk about the video installation Swamp posthumous, the live performance POSTHUMOUS-states, and their shared interest in hybrid bodies, historical paraphrases and the human relationship to animals, both those who walk the earth and the magical.
Signe and the dancers use their own bodies as the point of departure in an investigation of an archaeological find made in 1949 outside Örebro, where a middle-aged female body was found. The finding has puzzled researchers as the body partly consisted of animal parts. She had a cow shoulder, a horseshoe, a pig’s foot and a dog’s jaw. With a swamp as their teacher and companion, they have immersed themselves in more than human perspectives.And, in the time specific performance POSTHUMOUS-states, Agnieszka and Eszter take the work further, into the live performance on this specific location, a glade in the forest of Orlången.
