My Lindh (SE)

Her works – that often involve the viewer – explore perceptions of time as well as how ideas about nature can be reconstructed and reformulated. My Lindh’s work has been presented at art museums and short film festivals in Sweden as well as internationally, at Moderna Museet in Stockholm, the Finnish institute in Paris and Kunstverein München. 

Paz Rojo (ES)

Paz Rojo is a choreographer, dancer and researcher. Her work unfolds at the interface of artistic practices, choreography and philosophy. She has published the book To dance in Age of No-Future and her doctoral dissertation The decline of choreography and its movement: a body’s (path)way. Her latest curatorial work is ECLIPSE : MUNDO. Currently she is initiating a long term research project entitled To Die Well. With this project she tries to conceive and rehearse an art that concerns life and also that which concerns the life that comes after this current segment of time.  

Norberto Llopis (ES)

With an academic background in dance and philosophy, Norberto Llopis develops an artistic and thinking practice around the body, movement, and performativity. A practice that crystallizes in various forms, such as stage performances, essays on artistic practice, performative conferences, installations, and durational actions. His current research focuses on the practice with and around the notion of "operation" in the performing arts.

She has worked at Unga Klara, Stockholms stadsteater and Uppsala stadsteater and is currently working at Riksteatern, Dramaten, Konträr and Kiasma, Helsinki. Her work centres the body as an arena for explorations, sensuality and desire as method, the erotic and the expansion of its meaning, the idea of dirty, to move between “high and low” art and cake sitting.  

Jafar The Superstar (SE)

Jafar The Superstar (all pronouns) is an interdisciplinary drag artist working with mixed reality performance, subversive comedy, and interactive stage production through multimedia such as text, video, games, music, somatics, and theatre. The multifaceted drag persona is a terroristic shapeshifter who satirizes capitalist ideals of self-fulfillment, celebrity worship, and economic subjugation.

Through olafactory works, botanics, photography, installations, graphics, audio and performance, Germain explores the African diaspora to which she belongs. 

Eglė Budvytytė (NL/LT)

Eglė Budvytytė is an artist based in Vilnius and Amsterdam working at the intersection between song, poetry, video and performance. In her work, movements and gestures become technologies for a possible subversion of normativity, gender and social roles. She explores the persuasive power of collectivity, vulnerability and permeable relationships between bodies, audiences and the environments. Eglė Budvytytė’s work has been shown extensively at biennales and festivals all over the world, in places such as Chicago, Riga, Sydney, Amsterdam, Lofoten, Dubai and Venice. 

In collaboration with the dance project education at Region Uppsala folkhögskola, Wik.

Being With is her artistic practice developed in collaboration with land, deeply inspired by indigenous perspectives.

Gustaf Broms (SE)

Gustaf Broms is a Swedish artist living and working in the Vendel forest, Uppland. He works in the borderlands between performance, video and installation, and is engaged with concepts of being and the nature of consciousness, in the gap where the biological processes of the body are contrasted against the intellect’s ability to interpret experience. Through his practices, he investigates a language that transcends these cracks between the dualism body and mind, as well as between the self and the environment.

It is the third time that Gustaf Broms performs at Revolve Performance Art Days. His work has been shown internationally, for instance in the USA, France, Great Britain, Iran, India, Canada and South Korea. http://orgchaosmik.org/
