\u00ab\u00a0The Finnish art scene is very white\u00a0\u00bb – unique performing arts debut in Helsinki<\/h1>\n

Movement artist Yohannes Henriksson introduces the ground-breaking performance The Texture of Connection at the URB festival in the Kiasma theatre.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Texture of Connection<\/em> by Yohannes Henriksson<\/strong> offers a fusion of various international talents from Uganda, the USA, the Netherlands, Ghana, Belgium, and of course Finland. Hamis Ahmed<\/strong>, S*an D. Henry-Smith<\/strong>, Sebastian Kurt\u00e9n<\/strong>, and Saskia Nartey-Wemegah<\/strong> are on stage. Henriksson and lighting designer Sara Lehto<\/strong> are in charge behind the stage. The artists mix their art forms through a unique improv concept to create a fluid whole.<\/p>\n

– \u201cIn breakdancing, you practise by improvising in a dance ring. People dance and read the impulses of others and act on them. So I thought it would be an exciting idea to develop and add other art elements such as singing for example. You don’t see that very often on stage where everything is choreographed<\/em>\u00ab\u00a0, says Henriksson.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuomen taidekentt\u00e4 on hyvin valkoinen\u201d \u2013 ainutlaatuinen esitt\u00e4v\u00e4n taiteen teos ensi-illassa Helsingiss\u00e4<\/h1>\n

Taiteilija Yohannes Henriksson esittelee uraauurtavan The Texture of Connection -teoksen Kiasma-teatterin URB-festivaalilla.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Yohannes Henrikssonin<\/strong> The Texture of Connection<\/em> -teoksessa esiintyy kansainv\u00e4lisi\u00e4 taiteilijoita Ugandasta, Yhdysvalloista, Ghanasta, Belgiasta ja tietysti Suomesta. Hamis Ahmed<\/strong>, S*an D. Henry-Smith<\/strong>, Sebastian Kurt\u00e9n<\/strong> ja Saskia Nartey-Wemegah<\/strong> ovat lavalla. Henriksson ja valosuunnittelija Sara Lehto<\/strong> ty\u00f6skentelev\u00e4t lavan takana. Taiteilijat luovat yhtenev\u00e4isen kokonaisuuden yhdistelem\u00e4ll\u00e4 taiteenlajejaan improvisaation kautta.<\/p>\n

– \u201cBreakdancessa harjoitellaan improvisoimalla tanssiringiss\u00e4. Ihmiset tanssivat ja samalla tulkitsevat toistensa impulsseja ja reagoivat niihin. Siisp\u00e4 ajattelin, ett\u00e4 olisi j\u00e4nnitt\u00e4v\u00e4 idea kehitt\u00e4\u00e4 ja lis\u00e4t\u00e4 rinkiin muita elementtej\u00e4, kuten laulua. Sit\u00e4 ei n\u00e4e kovin usein lavalla, jossa kaikki on koreografioitua<\/em>.\u201d kertoo Henriksson.<\/p>\n

The Texture of Connection premiered on June 15th 2023 at URB Festival<\/a> in Kiasma Theater in Helsinki. Click here to read more about the project and the artists.<\/a><\/p>\n
