Veronica Boniotti & Helene Cæcilie Mørck …and still the River Flows

We will be working on a lecture-performance inspired by the concept of the Choreography of Emotions.
According to this theory, emotions are embodied forms in relation to the world, each with their own spatiotemporal coordinates. They can be understood as lived motivations toward movement, each with its own choreography and configuration of subjective experience, something that can be described and observed.

The lecture-performance is an artistic form in which artistic research and phenomenological inquiry can meet and take shape through both words and movement. We will be developing a lecture-performance that intertwines autobiographical testimony, choreographic practice, and theoretical reflection.

At its core lies the idea of creating a performative vocabulary that explores emotions as embodied movements, moving beyond purely cognitive approaches and opening new possibilities for connection, communication, and understanding through the body. We are bringing our combined perspective: the intersection of psychotherapy, choreography, writing and lived experience, and the wish to open a dialogue between artistic research and questions of identity, embodiment, and diversity.
