Om Evenemanget
Fall into the world of Svalbard and witness a cinematic debut that questions the voyeurism of audience and performers alike.
Capturing the bodily force of Svalbard Co's unique performance and translating it for the screen PROTEST weaves its world from photography, live film, stock footage and audience iphone footage to intoxicating and intimate effect.
This film brings visceral performance back into our lives and homes, keeping us engaged and supporting the creative industries during this drought of collective experience.
Protest is a 1 hour film produced in response to Covid-19 lockdown and the closure of venues. It is an adaptation of “An Evening with Svalbard Company”, originally performed live at Dynamo Circus Festival in Odense. It was co-produced by Dynamo Workspace as a collaboration between performance art, live cinematography, immersive design, live music and mixed media.
Svalbard Company is a circus company that believes in multidisciplinary art and is composed of 4 international performers (Ben Smith (UK), Alexis Akrovatakis (GR), Tom Brand (DE), Santiago Ruiz Albalate (ES).
