LAIMINLYÖTY-TANSSIKONSERTTI

Mitkä ovat laiminlyönnin jäljet?

Xposure-duo tekee yhteistyötä Helsinki Mission Nuorten kriisipisteen kanssa. Se tarjoaa nuorille aikuisille ilmaisen työpajan, jossa he voivat purkaa omia kokemuksiaan esityksellisiin muotoihin itseilmaisullisiksi statementeiksi.

Kerätty materiaali yhdistyy teoksen sisältöön ja tuo nuorten kokemukset osaksi esitystä, joka haluaa herättää keskustelua nuorten hyvinvoinnin puolesta.

Laiminlyöty-tanssikonsertti on Xposure duon nelikielinen esikoisteos. Esityksen kesto 45 minuuttia.

NEGLECTED DANCE CONCERT

Neglected dance concert piece is a performance by two artists concerned with the wellbeing of today’s neglected young adults. The piece gives its voice to a generation consumed by the absence of their community. It addresses the consequences of neglect and the bruises in the futures of this generation. Neglected dance concert piece is screaming for your presence, loving without judging and challenging you to listen to the real survival stories.

What are the effects of neglect?

The Xposure duo has collaborated with the Helsinki Missions Youth Crisis Center. Together we held a free workshop for young adults to enable them to express their experiences of neglect as artistical statements. The material gathered in the workshops is the key ingredient in the making of this piece. It brings their perspective of abuse as a part of a performance that aims to raise conversation over the situation of the young adults today.

Neglected dance concert piece is the first creation by the Xposure duo in four languages. Neglected premieres at the KokoTheater on the 15th of June. Other performances on the 16th and 17th of June. All shows at 7pm. Duration 45min.
