Tarpgaard, Tina
Tina Tarpgaard is a choreographer based in Copenhagen Denmark. Her creation "LIVING ROOM" was awarded best dance performance of the year in 2012 at the danish performing arts award.
“In the development of movement material, I draw inspiration from the relation between the body and the space in which it appears. By extension, my early work was primarily developed in urban settings, using the specific social or architectural frame as the starting point of creation. In my current work, I collaborate with software artists. This has brought me back to the Black Box theatre as a frame for my creations. At the core is a close relationship between choreographic material and motion-sensitive video graphics. Through this juxtaposition, I have obtained the possibility of expanding the motion of the body by also choreographing the light and darkness in which it appears. The graphics become an intelligent light source that allow me to work not only with the visible body, but also with the body as it disappears or is partly visible - an expressive and surprising form that seems infinite in new possibilities.”
