Moving Cities is a residency and performance project organised by Sõltumatu Tantsu Lava (STL) and Davvi – Center for the Performing Arts. It is a collaboration project for 4 Estonian artists and 4 Norwegian artists to find choreographic interventions on the topics of public space.
In the context of Tartu and Bodø being both the European Capitals of Culture for the year 2024 the project invites artists to research public space and its community habits using the techniques of choreography and performing arts. Moving Cities brings together professionals in choreography and urbanism to ask questions and look critically at the public space infrastructure in Tartu and Bodø.
The project consists of 3 parts: 2-week research residency in Tartu in August 2023; 3-week research residency with a public presentation in Bodø in June 2024; 3-week residency and rehearsal period with 3 public performances in Tartu in July 2024.
