Noora Juppi – Lovely
Lovely is a performance project by pole dancer Noora Juppi, exploring the intersection of pole dance performance and meditation practice. The piece explores experiences of sensitivity, pleasure, and connection achievable through meditation, as well as the possibilities of expressing them through pole dance and movement. The project consists of six smaller participatory events and a stage performance. The events are small-scale participatory works that investigate various ways to integrate a workshop and performance, blending meditation into the experience of both performing and watching. The sound designer of Lovely is Tuuli Kainulainen.
The themes for the six participatory events are: eye, ear, skin, tongue, mind and nose. The part we’ll see at Outsider Art Festival explores the sense of hearing. How does seeing affect your hearing? Can listening be a full-body activity? What does pole dancing sound like?
The events are held in Finnish and they are gently participatory.
