26. & 27. november 2024 kl. 19:30RIPE BODY er en genreoverskridende solo-danseperformance i to dele – en interaktiv installation efterfulgt af en hypnotiserende fest med live-musik.
Med forestillingens to dele inviteres publikum ind i et feminint univers, der er lige så funklende som det er kødeligt. Gennem kroppen søger koreograf og performer Ruth Rebekka Hansen at sætte et kalejdoskopisk filter på det kønnede, der både dekonstruerer og redefinerer det feminine.
I en næsten fire meter høj, gennemsigtig boks med spejlbeklædt loft og gulv bliver kroppen i forestillingens første del en levende kødskulptur. Iført tårnhøje stiletter udforskes forskellige fysiske former i en feminin krop, der udfordrer magtstrukturen mellem den, der betragter og den, der betragtes. I spejlrummets panoptikon bliver danserens og publikums blik konstant kastet frem og tilbage, og spørgsmålet bliver hurtigt, hvem der i virkeligheden betragter hvem.
I forestillingens anden del skifter RIPE BODY gear med en hypnotiserende eksplosiv performance. Performancen leveres igen af Ruth Rebekka Hansen, der denne gang bevæger sig i boksen til pulserende live musik. Musiker Lauge Heebøll sætter tonerne med en stemme, der omfavner både det melankolske mørke og det inviterende lys. I et landskab af tunge beats og glitrende kostume visker den anden del af RIPE BODY forholdet mellem performer og publikum ud, og inviterer til fejring af en femininitet, der rummer mere af alt. Resultatet er flydende, forførende og festligt.

RIPE BODY is a genre-defying solo dance performance in two parts – an interactive installation followed by a mesmerising party with live music.
The two-part performance invites the audience into a feminine universe that is as sparkling as it is carnal. Through the body, choreographer and performer Ruth Rebekka Hansen seeks to put a kaleidoscopic filter on the gendered that both deconstructs and redefines the feminine.
In the first part of the performance, the body becomes a living flesh sculpture in an almost four metre high, transparent box with a mirror-covered ceiling and floor. Wearing towering stilettos, different physical forms are explored in a feminine body that challenges the power structure between the observer and the observed. In the panopticon of the mirror room, the dancer’s and the audience’s gaze is constantly cast back and forth, and the question quickly becomes who is really looking at whom.
In the second part of the performance, RIPE BODY switches gears with a hypnotising explosive performance. The performance is again delivered by Ruth Rebekka Hansen, who this time moves in the box to pulsating live music. Musician Lauge Heebøll sets the tones with a voice that embraces both the melancholic darkness and the inviting light. In a landscape of heavy beats and glittering costumes, the second part of RIPE BODY erases the relationship between performer and audience, inviting a celebration of a femininity that holds more of everything. The result is fluid, seductive, and festive.
