Parachorale will be performed at the Vleeshal contemporary art center in Middelburg on 17\u201318.5.2025.<\/p>\n<p>The work continues Ala-Ruona\u2019s ongoing series exploring the paranormal potential of transcorporeality. It combines choral singing, live tattooing, and ritual elements. The performance challenges the othering gaze through which transcorporeality is often perceived as exceptional in society. It creates space for pain and collective pleasure through humour and absurdity.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt\u2019s wonderful to bring <em>Parachorale<\/em> to the Netherlands for its premiere, as this piece is very dear to me and I\u2019ve never performed there before. I find the Dutch performance art scene very interesting, and I think it\u2019s important for the work to reach new audiences beyond Finland,\u201d shares Ala-Ruona.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Dutch programme is curated by Vleeshal curator <strong>Jim van Geel<\/strong> and produced in collaboration with Vleeshal and the Finnish Cultural Institute for the Benelux. <em>Parachorale<\/em> originally premiered at the Baltic Circle Festival in Helsinki in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Vleeshal, the venue for the performance, is a contemporary art center located in Middelburg on the west coast of the Netherlands. The former meat market hall is known for its unique Gothic architecture. Vleeshal\u2019s programming combines performance and contemporary art through exhibitions and events. In 2023, it featured an exhibition and performance program by Finnish contemporary artist <strong>Emma J\u00e4\u00e4skel\u00e4inen<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The co-producer of the event is the Finnish Cultural Institute for the Benelux, based in Brussels. The performance is brought to the Netherlands as part of the institute\u2019s pARTir project, which aims to promote international mobility of Finnish artists. The work has also been developed during a residency at Kunstencentrum BUDA in Kortrijk, Belgium. Alongside Teo Ala-Ruona, the performers include <strong>Anni Puolakka<\/strong>,<strong> Caroline Suinner<\/strong>, <strong>Pauliina Sj\u00f6berg<\/strong>, and <strong>Tuukka Haapakorpi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAla-Ruona is one of Finland\u2019s most internationally significant and currently most sought-after contemporary artists. The Finnish Cultural Institute for the Benelux has worked with Ala-Ruona for a long time, and we are confident that the unique space of Vleeshal combined with the dreamlike atmosphere of <em>Parachorale<\/em> will resonate with the local audience,\u201d shares<strong>\u00a0Laura Boxberg<\/strong>, Director of the Finnish Cultural Institute for the Benelux.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Performance Details<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Title:<\/strong> Parachorale<br \/>\n<strong>Venue:<\/strong> Vleeshal, Middelburg, the Netherlands<br \/>\n<strong>Dates:<\/strong> 17.\u201318.5.2025<br \/>\n<strong>Team:<\/strong> Teo Ala-Ruona, Anni Puolakka, Caroline Suinner, Pauliina Sj\u00f6berg, Tuukka Haapakorpi<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/19KgLF4cCVLDQn6gbdjeC0P1q6RJpmYfP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Press Materials<\/a><br \/>\nCover image: Teo Ala-Ruona.
