The touring dancer’s journey, as depicted in the exhibition, becomes a site where the conflict between the joy of dancing and the hardships of being away from home for the first time can be investigated. This is the most exciting time of the young dancer's life and they are left to experience it on their own. Who are you missing and who is missing you?

The experiment will consist of a four-station journey: a video installation, an audio experience, a postcard table, and a fika stop, all interfoliated within the exhibition space, inviting you to reflect on your own experiences of missing. Take a second to stop and let the missing take place.

This is a participatory event and you are highly encouraged to take part in whatever way feels comfortable. The event will be available in both Swedish and English. It is recommended for adults but will also be suitable for children.
