5 stars for Marta & Kim in the Volkskrant

“All facets of their relationship, professional and private, Marta Alstadsæter and Kim-Jomi Fischer physically express,” begins the wonderful April 10, 2022 review of Our Arms Grew Together (premiered at Festival Circolo in 2021) in the Volkskrant, followed by as many as 5 stars!

Of course we are super proud and so we would like to take a moment to highlight some of the wonderful descriptions and compliments from the review:

“Truly all facets of an intimate, familiar as well as playful and rebellious relationship – professional and private – they express physically. By juggling impulses, momentum and body weight – they carry and twist each other on hips and shoulders. But also by using teasing glances, pulling away hand gestures or a mischievous toe against a leg to subtly expose meaning in their motor skills, so inhibited by each other.” Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

“Here are two performers at work who are complete extensions of each other on the floor (and probably at home) while still maintaining their own identities.”

“It may sound ferm but Marta & Kim are reminiscent of famous artist duos like Ulay & Marina Abramović or Yoko Ono & John Lennon, but in softer disciplines of dance and circus.”

 

We are proud and happy that Marta & Kim will be at Festival Circolo again this year. With two performances, they are part of our program:
FASE – Marta & Kim
Red Sky Blue Moon – Marta & Kim || Klara & Ellen
