Archeology of Community Movements
Creating a COMMUNITY
How is the community built? How is dialogue built? How to build a dialogue through movement in a community that does not know contemporary dance expression, but has a strong tradition of folklore creativity?
The idea of this project is the exchange of movement that comes from tradition, the culture of housing on the one hand, and good practices from contemporary dance on the other. The project’s development requires dialogue in cooperation with children, young people, and the adults of the town of Stari Grad on the island of Hvar.
The COMMUNITY project deals with the hyper-movement (Greek. hyper: over-, above-) and meta-movement reading of public, private, business, and shared living spaces using the narratives of the local environment. The idea starts by using the body in everyday actions, diving into the archeology of bodily actions, and forming a dance vocabulary based on the collected content. Participatory narratives of information exchange take place with the local population through games that we design together. The interest is focused on developing awareness of the process of body movement and the diversity and richness of movement vocabulary.

Arheologija pokreta zajednice
Stvaranje zajednice
Kako se gradi zajednica? Kako se gradi dijalog? Kako graditi dijalog kroz pokret u zajednici koja ne poznaje suvremeni plesni izričaj, ali ima tradiciju folklornog stvaralaštva?
Ideja ovog projekta je razmjena pokreta koji proizlazi iz tradicije, kulture stanovanja s jedne strane i dobrih praksi iz suvremenog plesa s druge strane. Odvijanje projekta traži dijalog u suradnji s djecom, mladima i dijelom odraslih Starog grada na otoku Hvaru.
Projekt ZAJEDNICA bavi se hiper_pokretnim i meta_pokretnim čitanjem javnog, privatnog, poslovnog i dijeljenog životnog prostora koristeći se narativima lokalne sredine. Ideja polazi od korištenja tijela u svakodnevnim radnjama te poniranje u arheologiju tjelesnih akcija i formiranja plesnog vokabulara na temelju prikupljenog sadržaja. S lokalnim stanovništvom odvijaju se participativni narativi razmjene informacija kroz igre koje zajedno osmišljavamo. Interes je usmjeren na razvijanje svijesti o procesu kretanja tijela te raznolikosti i bogatstvu vokabulara kretanja.

Introductory workshop of contemporary dance
Under the leadership of Nikolina Komljenović, and organized by the City of Stari Grad and the association Experimental Free Scene, a summer school of contemporary dance was held in the theatre hall from August 10 – August 26, 2022.
Contemporary dance can be many things, but its foundation is in the human body. It evolved from ballet and modern dance, breaking rigid rules. It has been developing since the second half of the 20th century and has developed into many different techniques.
About the workshop: Starting from walking and everyday actions, games were developed, they created and then broke the rules, exaggerated their actions, copied each other, listened to their favorite music, laughed together and put together a choreography from all of this.
Music at the suggestion of the participants: Harry Stiles, Falling
Host and choreographer: Nikolina Komljenović
Production: ekscena, city of Stari Grad, Ministry of Culture and Media of the Republic of Croatia

Uvodna radionica suvremenog plesa
Pod vodstvom Nikoline Komljenović, a u organizaciji Grada Starog Grada i udruge Eksperimentalna slobodna scene od 10. 08. – 26. 08. 2022. u kazališnoj dvorani održala se ljetna škola suvremenog plesa
Suvremeni ples može biti puno toga, ali njegov temelj je u ljudskom tijelu. Razvio se iz baleta i modernog plesa razbijajući čvrsta pravila. Razvija se od druge polovice 20. stoljeća te se razvio u puno različitih tehnika.
O radionici: Počevši od hodanja i svakodnevnih radnji razvijale su se igre, stvarala pa kršila pravila, pretjerivalo u radnjama, kopiralo jedno drugo, slušala omiljena glazba, smijali se zajedno i od svega toga složili koreografiju.
Muzika na prijedlog polaznica: Harry Stiles, Falling
