Mermaid(s) of the Hypersea
Mermaid(s) of the Hypersea is a somatic and performative research on being a body of water set in a choreographic context. It is a dance with the water we all carry inside, the water we are and the water that passes through us and blurs the boundaries between you, me, and us, as well as the human and the non-human. The ‘Hypersea’ is what Dianna & Mark McMenamin call the water we, all living organisms, carry within. In Mermaid(s) of the Hypersea, the performers are getting in touch with this common inner sea by working in a borderland, where bodies of water transform, and the imaginative, the sensual, the performative, and the fictional create an overall understanding of ever-changing liquid bodies. Mermaids as mythical divas that manifest in-betweenness, queerness and more-than-humanness become figures to embody. Through singing, dancing, tea-making and pouring bodies of water, the performance becomes a ritual of becoming mermaids of the hypersea. The performance is a duet version of the solo performance Mermaid of the Hypersea from 2019 by Snorre Evin.
