Tvåtakt

Tvåtakt is a performance collaboration between the visual artist Ingela Ihrman and choreographer Stina Nyberg. They are dealing with the idea of the tongue as a muscle, a liar, a sensous organ, an alien within, the love of dads and their love of cars, and with experience of being two rather than one.

Departing from a shared interest in the shortcomings of the body and physical metaphors Ingela and Stina are engaging in a research together, both visiting the other artist's creative process with curiousity and shame. The performance was developed in 2022-24 in residencies at Dansplats Skog and Butiken in Hörken with performances December 12th-17th 2024 at Hägerstensåsens medborgarhus.
