conversation
With the performance installation "every time I try to move" as the starting point, Monia Sander Haj-Mohamed will host a conversation about the decentralized, digital performance laboratory, theatrebuilding.com - where performances take place across time and space.
every time I try to move met an audience for the first time at YC FESTIVAL in November 2023 and was co-created by Mouayed Ghazouani, Ahmed Ben Abid, Jazbo Gross and Monia Sander Haj-Mohamed. The work connected the physical theatre building with the the digital theatrebuilding through live stream elements and scripts unfolding on the phones of the audience.
Theatrebuilding.com arose from a desire from the performance artists to meet and work together despite socio economic obstacles and it is today rooted in North Africa, South America and Europe, and open for new members.

Monia Sander Haj-Mohammed
Monia Sander Haj-Mohammed lives and works in a field between writing, performance art, and direction. With references to the theater, Haj-Mohamed explores the range of the performative space where reality and fiction blend, and where the distinction between real people and literary characters is blurred. She graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2020 and was the artistic director of Momentum Theater in the 21/22 season. Through Forlaget Korridor, she published “Dominique” in 2015 and “The Alexander Trilogy – a Performance Essay in Three Acts” in 2019, for which she received the Schade Prize. She has exhibited at O-Overgaden, the National Gallery of Denmark, and Amager Psychiatric Hospital, and is part of the decentralized exhibition platforms Hosting Lands and theatrebuilding.com.
