KROM – kropp i rom

What can the body be? How does the body express who we are? Can we create a space that has room for everyone? Through workshop and performance, a holistic art experience is created.

This KROM workshop is specifically designed for the middle school level and explores themes such as body, expression, participation, collaboration, tolerance, diversity and inclusion. The student actively participates and gets to create their own dance, experience, reflect and express themselves.
Through the workshop, students are given the opportunity to explore movement and space in an inclusive way. Students are introduced to simple tasks that provide a safe experience. Three dance artists move in and out of roles as performers and mentors for the students from start to finish. Students build their own space out of masking tape into which the dance is then placed. The students are then each other's audience, in a collective art event in gymsalen The students reflect on their own choices, creating, and the art experience.

KROM provides a holistic art experience that includes dance, music and visual art, where the student is both inside and outside the artworks produced.
The students become part of a culture where each individual expression has equal value and where they are given room to be themselves and make their own choices. The teacher participates alongside and in line with the students.
