the artistic research
During their residency, Wanjiku Victoria Seest and Jupiter Child collaboratively explore the intersections of language, identity, and migration, focusing on the immigrant experience in Denmark.
They wish to investigate how language shapes belonging and self-expression, drawing inspiration from the works of Danish writer Tove Ditlevsen.
Through this exploration they aim to create performative material that reflects their shared and individual journeys with the Danish language, addressing themes of marginalization, class, and cultural integration. By combining their perspectives, they seek to crafts a nuanced narrative that sparks dialogue on the complexities of the immigrant experience, using performance as a medium to engage and connect with diverse audiences.
the artists
This collaboration brings together the unique artistic practices of both artists to explore the complexities of migration and integration through the lens of language, self-expression, and identity. With complementary but distinct approaches, the duo seeks to merge their practices into an immersive experience that speaks to personal and collective stories.
