What can dance do?
is a three year long, regional, artistic and infrastructural development project that investigates and asks the question What can dance do? / Vad kan dans göra?. The project investigates dance, dance’s own logic and ability to move people, places and communities. The project is initiated by dance artist Vincent Jonsson and is now a collaborative project between Vincent, Dans i Öst/ Region Östergötland and the regional dance collectives Ronny and Blauba.

“Dansverk 22.01.22” was the first public meeting with an audience in the first year of the project What can dance do? / Vad kan dans göra?, which is a regional, artistic and infrastructural development project that investigates dance, dance’s own logic and ability to move people, places and communities. The ongoing performance consists of five short pieces, as well as audience conversations about dance and experiences of dance. It was performed at Passagen, museum in Linköping the 22.01.2022. It was seen by 108 people that visited Passagen that day.
“The openness of the theme allowed me it to interpret what I saw in my own way”
“In the silence, I noticed the dance more, when it was allowed to be alone and the center of attention“
