V Figurines

V Figurines is a performance examining womanhood through sculpture and movement. The work is inspired by Venus figurines from the stone age and Marit Benthe Norheim’s Life-boats. Spectators are invited to sculpt a figurine to explore Venus as a woman; how do we know – and want to know her? The figurines are installed in relation to the performers awakening dances and characters in them.
