limit cruisers

Tags: , , ,


Limit cruisers is a three-part performance for listeners and onlookers by visual artist Janna Holmstedt, that can be experienced between 18-20 of September at the Inter Arts Center in Malmö, with three performances each day: 19, 19.45 and 20.30- Three visistors at the time will each be entering a sphere of their own. A countdown begins. A voice communicated to them via the wireless headphones they all will be wearing informs them that the oxygene will last another ten minutes. Meanwhile other visitors can watch the three isolated persons – who after a while will start moving and interacting. Limit cruisers is a part of Janna Holmstedts doctoral project at the Umeå Art Academy.  The three parts of the piece are called ”New Individualism”, ”The Heroes of Absolute Zero” and ”Decoy” and are all centered around more or less successful attempts to reach ground zero, a clearly distinguishable border or the so strongly desired state of individual autonomy.  The performance is produced together with Teatr Weimar, with support from Umeå Art Academy
