Signup
Tårnby Park Studio invites you to an open breathing and writing workshop with performance artist Monia Sander Haj-Mohamed and sound designer Eliza Bozek.
No special experience required, just a desire to explore the theme with other people!
About the workshop:
Join us on Saturday 20/4 from 13-17, where we will engage in collective writing and reading of text about time and loss, centred around the sea. Writing can be done in Danish, English and Arabic.
Using breath and humming, we will connect to each other and listen to the sound of our bodies as they combine to form a sonic ocean.
Introducing the spect-actor from Augusto Boal’s Theatre of the Oppressed to open source coding practices, we will build on each other’s voices and write small dramatic scripts that form into a continuously evolving story.
Similar workshops will take place in Grenå, Tunis, Tunisia and El Kef, Tunisia, and the texts will be uploaded to a website where they can be read and used freely by anyone. They will also later be used in the open source theatre production, Crying by the Sea.
For those who have smartphones, bring them fully charged. There will be a few laptops available for participants without smartphones.
Important
Sign up to the workshop by writing to tanya[a]taarnbyparkstudio.org – participation is free but the number of participants is limited.
The workshop is taking place 13.00-17.00 in our studio at Tårnbypark allé 79 in the basement of the building.
Tårnby Park Studio is providing snacks, coffee and tea during the workshop.
We are looking forward to welcoming you into Monia’s and Eliza’s world!
About Crying by the Sea
The workshop is an activation of a migratory installation that acts as a pre-study and writing workspace for the theatre performance Crying by the Sea, which takes place in 2025. In the installation, we investigate the colonial history of the internet as submarine cable lines that transported Morse code between the UK and colonised overseas territories. We also examine how block chain technology, open source coding and decentralised server systems can be used in decolonising ways when it comes to the distribution of resources, attention and information. We will also look at the position of the spectator in performance production and ask questions related to the spectator’s rights as a content producer in contemporary immersive theatre production.
The theatre production, Crying by the Sea, touches on the sea of grief associated with socio-economic migration through collective writing processes and on-stage role-playing that connects audiences in Denmark and Tunisia. The performance project unfolds through non-linear chapters in 2024 and 2025.

The interest lies in the spaces between voice, breathing, body and words, and how spending time listening and naming can evoke a moving relationship to meaning and subjectivity. By working with poeticizing for voice and bodily practice, the project continuously studies how choreography and dance can become space for generous dialogue with audiences and poetic sense-making. “
With Ottavia Catenacci she is leading the project YOUR HEART OUT which has been partly developed and shown at Tårnby Park Studio.

Parini Secondo
Process Showing: 24. August kl. 19.00
Parini Secondo re-approaches the world of play. In their new production – do around the world (working title), they are fascinated by jump rope both as an athletic practice and as a rhythmic element. In this instrument, Parini identifies the powerful union between the athlete and the child, two heroic figures who, together with the poet, share a close relationship with death (Jesi, 1958). Starting from the typical rhythms of their own childhood, a choreographic score for two jumpers takes shape in which body and rope are a single sound technology. Gymnastic activity becomes an acoustic and visual meditative pretext. The work is pursuing in the online research that finds its physical translation,
Curriculum
Parini Secondo was born in 2017 from an idea by Sissj Bassani and Martina Piazzi, involving Camilla Neri and Francesca Pizzagalli. The collective works on movement in a protean way, questioning the limits of authorship and up-to-dateism. With an ecological and ready-made act, the group remixes other people’s ideas found online, assembling choreographies through sampling. Parini exploits and supports the potential of open source and DIY [do-it-yourself]. From 2019 collective collaborates with Alberto Ricca, teacher and electronic composer under the name Bienoise, involved in the projects “i”(2019), “ROCCO”(2019) , “SPEEED”(2020) and “be me” (2021).
DO AROUND THE WORLD IS SUPPORTED BY Culture Moves Europe, Funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union, Implemented by the Goethe-Institut.

YOUR HEART OUT is a dance playground for choreographic investigation into the logics and questions of fandom. It’s a curiosity towards fandom as a carrier bag of excessive emotion for imitating, worshiping and power playing hierarchical relationships. The fan and the idol are always playing – who moves what moves who?
THE SWIMMER
April 2022
THE SWIMMER er en koreografisk research, der udforsker historiefortælling.
Hvordan skaber man fortællinger og overbevisninger. Vi er nysgerrige på, hvordan post-sandhedspolitik påvirker identitet og tro gennem nye kommunikations- og medieteknologier.
Hvilken effekt har de på vores kroppe, bevægelse og sociale organisering?
