The Artistic research
During a 2-week residency, artists Alice Martuccis and Jaleh Negari will explore the concept of regeneration.
They will try to embrace the many ways in which regeneration takes place, by focusing on creating a safe space where regeneration can happen.
Through score-based improvisation, which deals with time as circular and multidimensional, with sound and dance they will practice regeneration as an intuitive movement - embracing all qualities: from the dormant to the violent. They imagine that that movement can branch out through time like a spiral, that it can become a loop that constantly re-examines itself. Their intention is to witness the types of regeneration that arise from their practice and to investigate whether they can invite a common regenerative process between performers and audiences.
the artists
The two artists share an interest in time as a non-linear dimension, and how what has been broken or lost and passed away is still with us and can be given new life through our care and through our artistic practice.
In their collaboration, they employ improvisation based on scores, writing exercises, study of polyrhythmic music and dance, repetition and loop as practices and blueprint for composition.
Jaleh Negari
Jaleh Negari is a musician and composer working with both instrumental and electronic music, art installations and performances. Her practice focuses on cross-aesthetic translation processes, creating dialogues between visual and aural expressions, for example between graphic works and sound or dance and music. As a drummer, Negari explores the drum kit as a sound source rather than a set of conventional dogmas, investigating the depth of rhythm as movement and the potential of drums as a transmitter of a shared energy.
Alice Martucci
Alice Martucci was born in Florence (IT) and moved to Copenhagen (DK) in 1998 to study dance, where she is still based today. Martucci holds a MFA in Choreography (2024) and a BA in Dance (2002) from the Danish National School of Performing Arts, as well as a BA in Theatre and Performance Studies (2018) from the University of Copenhagen. As a dancer, she has worked extensively across the contemporary dance and visual arts scenes in Denmark and Europe, collaborating with artists such as Sara Hamming, Alice Chauchat, Nønne Svalholm, and Éva Mag.
About the format
IN PROCESS is HAUTs 1-2 week residency format that creates space for physical brainstorms that support the study and development of new ideas for the stage.
Alice Martuccis and Jaleh Negari are invited to the residency through the open call IN PROCESS - Regeneration, with which we open the question of what artists can learn from the concept of regeneration.
The open call was curated in collaboration with the Institute of Interconnected Realities (I-IR), a collaboration between choreographers Ida-Elisabeth Larsen and Marie-Louise Stentebjerg.
