A choreographed celebration of the landscape of the body<\/strong><\/h5>\n

40 bodies. Vastly different, but similar in their nudity. They react to each other. And to the place. They tremble and shake. They rush off in groups to suddenly find common peace. The energy is invisible, but radiates all the way out into the body of the audience. The soundscape pulses up and down between insistent techno rhythms and meditative frequencies.<\/p>\n

Habitat is a celebration of all bodies, all ages, all genders. 40 human bodies create a common ritual in motion, where everyone is welcome. The 40 bodies take you on a walk around Refshale\u00f8en between wild and vulnerable tableaus – from the industry’s past to the future we can glimpse in the distance with the construction of a new island. A new habitat.<\/p>\n

\"Doris<\/a>A habitat is a living space for specific species. Here, Refshale\u00f8en becomes home for the body that is tired of playing hide and seek. Austrian choreographer Doris Uhlich wants to peel away the layers that separate us from who we were born as. She wants to create a utopia where the naked body can live outside the traditional norms and ideals. Without shame and without fear of the outside gaze.<\/p>\n

Habitat is a traveling format that invites a new group of local bodies each time. Ordinary bodies, some of which are professionally trained to move and some of which are not. The performance is created with these bodies and with the place as an all-important partner.<\/p>\n

Since 2013, she has worked specifically with nudity.<\/span> It is not about provoking, but about shaking off society’s tabooing of the naked body.<\/span> After Vienna, Cologne, Bristol, Marseille, Munich and Trondheim, Habitat in Copenhagen is the 10th edition of the work since Doris Uhlich created the first version in 2017.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
