#7 Elenita Queiróz (St. Gallen)

Warning for Contemplation Sections

in pre-production

St. Gallen based choreographer Elenita Queiróz is TanzPlan Ost Associated Artist 2021/22. Within this one year co-production programm she is developing her new creation Warning for Contemplation Sections.

Warning for Contemplation Sections is an act of resistance, a call to a silent, raw, lurking and contemplative form of rebellion. The project arises from an inner refusal to an endless, exhausting neo-liberal logic of production and the accompanying demands that we are constantly expected to fulfil in our everyday lives and as artists.

The creation process will be accompanied and documented by Michelle Ettlin and Mona De Weerdt.
