SIRI&SNELLE
My role started off working with Siri & Snelle as a consultant, looking at future plans, planning and structure. This further led to work as the company's producer, which included coordination, structuring, contracting and being the outside eye. Together with Siri & Snelle I worked with planning of production / tour in the performances GRUMS, Jeg er kosmos, Collapsing Distance and Kroppsessayene.
Siri&Snelle´s work has placed improvisation at the heart of their process and performances. They have developed a personal style unrestrained by conventional genres. They playfully incorporate elements from a variety of dance techniques, as well as narrative theatre, talk-shows and live music, blending them with humor and self-irony. They have worked together for over 25 years.
Siri&Snelle have produced cutting edge work within a wide scope of formats, from happenings to full scale dance theatre productions – independent productions and commissioned works, such as for Carte Blanche|The Norwegian National Company of Contemporary Dance.
Drawing upon both high and popular culture, as well as the completely uncultured, Siri & Snelle highlight numerous social undercurrents in their work. They often reference subjects that are uncomfortable, claustrophobic, or unacceptable. As social norms are often the strongest limitation to creative expression, the duo often intimately dissect their own personal spheres in order to collapse cultural divides and eliminate shame.
