All That Remains is a choreographic work that blurs the boundaries of dance, installation art and sound, unfolding as a richly textured and sculptural performance. Set in an uncertain world on the verge of transformation, where hybrid sculptures of industrial waste are scattered throughout the space, the work is a visceral investigation into the wound of our relationship with our environment. In a time of overlapping ecological, social, and personal uncertainties, All That Remains explores how our inner landscapes intersect with external realities, delving into the cracks, the wounds, and the spaces in-between. How do we exist with a sense of “losing our way” while simultaneously encouraging new connections and discovering new pathways of being? Moving from playfulness to resignation, from ecstasy to desolation, All That Remains unfolds as a mesmerizing journey through ever-transforming universes.
On a bare stage, sculptures made of industrial waste and natural elements are scattered throughout the space. Originally created by visual artist Søren Engsted and reinterpreted for this occasion by artists Francesco Maggiora and Milo Maricelli, these sculptures combine discarded materials of industrial, natural, and synthetic origin to create assemblages that evoke a temporal suspension and a disorienting lack of meaning—opening up new possibilities for connection and transformation. Performers Elisa D'Amico, Zen Jefferson, Roosa Törmä, and Eliott Marmouset inhabit this fractured landscape, navigating new pathways of relation between themselves and the materials around them. Like a healing ritual, their voices resonate through one another’s bodies, while sound artist Fredrik Arsæus Nauckhoff captures and processes these vibrations, echoing them throughout the space to extend the ritual across the landscape. The electronic composition generates a mesmerizing environment, inviting immersion in a suspended state to witness the shape-shifting landscape.
Bio
Mirko Guido (b. Italy) works with dance and choreography between theatres, art galleries/museums, and public spaces - spanning over performances, installations, intra-disciplinary research projects, and publications. All works are a continual negotiation of boundaries — between body, space and materialities, between individual and collective experience, between certainty and ambiguity. Each project operates as a physical, material and intellectual inquiry into choreography as a system of responsiveness, guiding the attention towards the coexistence of multiple processes and materialities.
As a dancer he worked in several dance companies, including the Cullberg Ballet, and with a great variety of choreographers, whom have provided him with a wide range of embodied perspectives on dance, from Mats Ek, Crystal Pite, Johan Inger to Deborah Hay, Benoît Lachambre, Cristina Caprioli and Tilman O’Donnel, passing by Paul Lighgoot & Sol Leon, Itzik Galili, Alexander Ekman, Rafael Bonachela, Jo Strømgren, Stephan Thoss among many others.
As a choreographer Mirko he has toured his productions internationally, including PuSh Festival, Vancouver, (Canada), Athens dance festival (Greece), Festival La Becquée (France), Festival MAP/P Emotional (Portugal), Teatri di vita (Italy), Dance Station (Serbia), Weld and Dansens Hus (Sweden), Bora Bora and ARoS Art Museum (Denmark), SPEL - The State Gallery of Contemporary Art, Nicosia (Cyprus) among many others. His artistic processes have been supported by major choreographic centres such as Summer Studios Rosas, Work Space Brussels; Uferstudios Berlin; PACT Zollverein; MDT Stockholm to mention but a few. Mirko holds a master’s degree in New Performative Practices from DOCH / Stockholm University of the Arts, and today he’s based in Aarhus, Denmark, and is an in-house artist at Bora Bora – Dance and Visual Theater.
