Premiere: 2017
Design of the game M and original players: Marjeta Kamnikar and Gregor Kamnikar
Production: Gregor Kamnikar, Federacija, NDA Slovenia
Support: Mestna občina Ljubljana, Erferifund
Also supported by the EU program Creative Europe in the frame of DANCE ON, PASS ON, DREAM ON
In 2007, Gregor told Marjeta, who was short on opportunities to move, that she might begin dancing. And really, Marjeta rolled up her sleeves and started dancing. Many variations of this leap into dance have arisen – meetings, performances, installations, letters... Since then, together with others who have become part of the game, and consequently the family, Marjeta has immersed herself in “moments becoming events by finding/inventing their documentation in any medium.”*
In 2017 NDA Slovenia invited M into the project Dance On Pass On Dream On. When the practice of the game M met with a variety of artists and authors, an abundance of meetings, resulting in different formats, happened. This encounter of practices produces such rich documentation that six moments could become six events very easily.
*quoting Klemen Papež, one of the first players of the game: “Moments becoming events by finding/inventing their documentation in any medium.”
