Bjarte Wildeman

Bjarte Wildeman (1998, NL) creates performances and unconventional choreographies with the mechanisms which are found in, and define the Body; and through which the Body relates to the surroundings. He builds and uses choreographic and kinetic apparatuses to highlight and enable these movements. He is intrigued by bodily motion, the physical experience, altering these experiences and biohacking, and researches (mostly) through combining performance, kinetic installations, dance, contemporary circus, contortionism and various movement practices. He obtained his Bachelor's Degree at the ArtScience Interfaculty at the Royal Academy of Art and Conservatory The Hague. Through his work he aims at inter- and intra-individual sensation, physical awareness and understanding, and developing ways of understanding and altering kinetic experience. He is currently working with expansion through restriction, the cognitive effect of movement systems; Mutualistic and interdependent movements, and the kinetic relationship between the Body, the Apparatus/Environment and Sensemaking
