M

Marjeta Kamnikar and Gregor Kamnikar

2017

In 2007, Gregor told Marjeta, who was running out of opportunities for movement, that she could start dancing. And indeed, Marjeta rolled up her sleeves and threw herself into dance. Many variations of this leap into dance emerged (meetings, performances, installations, letters...). Since then, Marjeta, along with others who became part of the game and consequently of the family, has been diving into "moments, so that they become events by (dis)covering their documentation in whichever medium"*.

In 2017, Nomad Dance Academy Slovenia invited M into the Dance On Pass On Dream On project. As the practice of the game M met with the practices of various authors, a wealth of encounters in different formats emerged. This meeting of practices bore such rich documentation that at least six moments could become six events.

*Quoting Klemen Papež, one of the first players of the game M: "A moment becomes an event when it (dis)covers its documentation".

Premiere: 2017

The Creative Europe Programme of the European Union, within the framework of DANCE ON, PASS ON, DREAM ON, also supports M. M is a documentational and documentary movement game of encounters.
