Limbo me
One self in between. LIMBO ME unfolds as a shifting landscape of roles - blurring into each other, colliding, dissolving, reforming. It is an intimate dialogue between self and other, between impulse and form, between distance and intimacy, acceptance and refusal. One self in a liminal space, neither here nor there, neither in the past nor in the future. One self in a liminal state - identity, roles, and meaning are in flux, composition is never fixed, is always forming. Moving through this uncertainty, in the wobbly state of becoming, questioning, changing and transforming - where choices echo, contradict and undo themselves. Here and now is blurred with memory, the unsaid and what has yet not come. Presence becomes layered, fractured, and whole all at once, a precarious in - betweenness. Limbo is also a purgatory, a passage, a restless waiting, a torment of transition, of neither being lost nor found. Wrestling with the struggle, with the impossibility of arrival and with the weight of movement that never quite resolves, the work lives in this precarious state, where every shift is both collapse and recovery and the body that is both subject and witness.

Bio
Anna Apergi is a dance artist whose projects explore the fields of dance, performance and site specific. In her practice she explores the agency of the artist in relation to the multiplicity of roles they carry and she is interested in creating common grounds on which different practices can land and collaborate. Her work cultivates an ethos of flexibility and responsiveness to the immediate environment, embracing the unpredictability of the processes, allowing structures to be stretched and transformed. She creates and presents her own work, while also collaborating with other choreographers, musicians, visual artists and film-makers. Anna is currently based in Stockholm pursuing her Master in Choreography with specialization in New Performative Practices at Stockholm University of the Arts.
