Navigating in the Frame was part of Bodily Meditations – corporeal interpretations of Tarja Pitkänen-Walter’s works at Helsinki Taidehalli February 2022.
Three choreographers Sara Grotenfelt, Eeva Juutinen and Iina Taijonlahti shared with exhibition visitors various performative and multisensory ways of engaging with Tarja Pitkänen-Walter’s paintings.
In Navigating in the Frame the artwork and human being exist side by side, forming varying compositions in which cumulative effects and concatenations of ideas and objects are interpreted.
The work also reveals the process of making: what the dancer's work is in practice and how the choreography is constructed.
Premiere in Helsinki taidehalli 2022. Production Taidehalli.
