MOTHPEOPLE OPEN CALL

Kolorádó is looking for candidates in the field of dance, to create a site-specific performance called Mothpeople of Kolorádó.

The choreographer of Mothmen is Patrik Kelemen, who you can join. The genre of the performance: skin horror dance performance. The theme is touch as the main means of contact and cognition. Touch is the fundamental basis of our humanity, an indispensable tool for metacommunication and our image of reality. This work aims at the emancipation of the senses, the elevation of the tactile to a common level with the visual, the sharpening and sensitization of the senses.

The inspiration for the piece comes from the mythological figure of the 'Mothman'. He is an imaginary man-animal hybrid of popular culture, always a harbinger of changing times, sometimes an omen of sinister events.
