What does it mean for the social and sensuous order of theatre when girls and women from four generations create a performing arts space together?
HAUT x Beehive Foundation Pop Up Residency
What does it mean for the social and sensual order of the performing arts when it is created jointly by girls and women from several generations? Can children do anything but disrupt the art experience of adults? Can they shape it?
How do the experiences and pace of older performing artists colour the creative process? What traditions do we need to keep in mind and revitalize across generations? And what does it mean when children, younger artists, mid-career and mature artists insist together to seek out common working rhythms and expressions?
Transgenerational Aesthetics is a survey between artists, which in terms of age, spans 70 years. Here are shared practices from art and life - focusing on the study of how creative work and aesthetic expression are influenced by the composition of the group, the life circumstances of the participants and the changing framework of our meetings.
During their Pop-up residency, the group wants to explore what rhythms, visual expressions, movements and ways of being together arise when the producing unit of artists becomes age-heterogeneous.
The group consists of performance artist Cecilie Ullerup Schmidt, choreographers Stine Frandsen, Karis Zidore, Marie-Louise Guldbæk Stentebjerg, dance researcher and choreographer Karen Vedel, set designer and stage designer Catherine Poher, as well as the children Indira Pascale Guldbæk Bonnici and Ekko Salma Liebmann.

Karis Zidore
Karis Zidore is a choreographer and sound artist, which is why her artistic practice is based on sound, voice, and body - both separately, in parallel, and intertwined. She collaborates with choreographers Olivia Rivière, Emilie Gregersen, and Naya Moll, among others, and is also part of the artistic collective Danseatelier in Copenhagen.

HAUT x Bikubenfonden Pop Up Residency
Transgenerational Aesthetics is part of HAUT x Bikubenfonden Pop Up Residency, which is a test run of the studio residency format and is aimed at the independent performing artists in the field of cross-aesthetic performing arts. The artists are offered a residency of up to 4 weeks, with the possibility of sparring from selected feedback partners, focusing on how artistic feedback can strengthen a project's further development.
HAUT x Bikubenfonden Pop Up Residency takes place in Copenhagen, where one floor of Fondenes Hus is furnished studio with dance vinyl and a simple technique package. The overall development course aims to investigate what are the needs for residencies and how a studio residency can qualify artistic development.
