Creative Collaborators

Formerly a dancer with the company, Kirsten returns with FIELD, her first major creation for Opera Ballet Vlaanderen.  Musicians from OBV's Symphonic Orchestra perform the Eighth String Quartet by Dmitri Shostakovich and the 'Melodia' from the Sonata for Solo Violin by Bela Bartok (Live) To this incatatory music, Wicklund and her team open a portal to a mysterious mirror universe.  A soundscape by Jean Delouvroy and Ivania Cario's abstract, geometric set catapult the spectator into a space that seems to exist outside time.  Dimensions like movement and light also merge in Irina Shaposhnikova's almost fluid costumes.

"The first piece, Field, was very intense, a truly amazing experience.  It's incredible to what extent a human body is able to express"


Backtrack

"It was a bold mainstage choreographic debut for Wicklund, which indicates plenty of potential and an innovative mindset."

"...It's an intense experience for us as well as the dancers.  Wicklund knows how far to push her dancers and push she does."
