VINDVAKA
Virpi Pahkinen Dance Company makes a journey in the hydrosphere through transformations of water to the Sámi composer Roger Ludvigsen´s music.
Movements can seem snow-quiet and winding, or roaring and flowing, until they reach a clarity of a snow crystal. Produced by Scenkonst Sörmland and Giron Sámi Téahter.
BLACK RAINBOW
This is a choreography with old soul wisdom, still it is entertaining and edgy, a fresh dialogue with the unknown, hopefull and bathing in the paradoxical luminescence, that of a black rainbow.
”Yes we are in Virpi land: musical, mystical and saturated with a beauty that tends to the sacral. ”

SOLO
Virpi will meet koto musician Chieko Mori in a live performance at theater X, Tokyo, for the festival The Princess who loved insects.
“Yesterday I saw Virpi Pahkinen perform the human battle with magical movements. Her little finger says as much as a whole novel.”
Theodor Kallifatides, author
DEEP TIME
Sacred songs and shimmering marimba techno, 6 dancers as zoomorphic figures from the layers of time.
“A clear and enigmatic picture of life’s metamorphosis.”
SvD
MONOLIT POLYGON
A versatile and surprising work in which a large group forms visual puzzles. Thrilling solos rise from the breath waves of the corps de ballet.
”With razor sharp precision the bodies seem to bring about supernatural formations.”
Swedish Radio
