SUMMARY:Charlie Laban Trier: Surfacing HypoKrisia
DESCRIPTION:IPAF presents: Charlie Laban Trier: Surfacing HypoKrisia \nSurfacing HypoKrisia is a series of performative efforts and spells to invoke manifestations of a speculative\, trans-mythic figure. Her name is HypoKrisia. She’s a figment of Charlie’s fantasy – imagined as the forgotten little sister of Tiresias\, the blind prophet from Greek mythology. The performance embarks on a journey researching resilience through the guidance of her. \nAccording to the myth\, Tiresias sees two snakes in a mating spiral. He is disgusted by the sight of something he does not understand and strikes the female snake. Because of this action\, Hera\, Zeus’ wife\, transforms him into a woman. \nBoth Tiresias and HypoKrisia could be read as trans figures\, but HypoKrisia resists a full  becoming. She insists on the liminal space and chooses to live in a performative state of “half un-done.” \nIn this imaginary myth she is deemed unworthy and dangerous by society and therefore erased from the stories. She’s the embodiment of the snake: smooth\, elusive\, and constantly on the verge of shedding skin. \nThe wish is to summon her from the depths\, because she has been held down beneath the surface for far too long. But in this act\, friction is inevitable; it’s not smooth sailing to bring forth what has been forgotten or perhaps never existed. It is like reaching through a portal to a time we cannot reach—and what emerges may be unknown and difficult to face. \nIn this dance-piece the audience is taken into a mythological spin\, where we no longer know who are speaking through whom. We’ll meet a lonesome character\, but there’s another presence hiding deep under. The boy attempts to invoke her\, he speaks in/with multiple tongues. \nThe pursuit is to dance with her; a dance-duet leading perhaps to a momentary take-over of his body. In this complicated partnership\, he tries to follow the laws of the trickster and together they embrace total pretense. Their tool-box is filled with contradictory disagreement\, faking and mimicry. \n  \nAbout the Artist:\nCharlie Laban Trier (b. 1987\, dk) is a performing artist who chooses to situate his practice deep within the realm of dance\, though the dances often appear through other forms such as; bottom-barrel yells turned into songs\, text-sampling\, endlessly becoming costume\, carrying/caring for screens\, extreme sculptural headbanging and more. He sees dance as inherently messy\, slippery and emergent – a form of knowledge that resists legibility.  \nLiving as a transperson\, is a big teacher in his thinking/approach to work. Charlie thinks of transness\, like dance\, as a technology that helps him complicate material. It allows for embodying multiple images\, seducing viewers\, and shifting fluidly between forms.  \nHe is currently investigating practices of collective myth-making\, wanting to foster conversations that resist fixed meaning and invite a dis-positioning of the hero/center-stage. \n  \nCredits: \nChoreography & performer: Charlie Laban Trier \nDramaturgical partner: Noha Ramadan \nLight designer: Angela X \nRC-vehicle builder: Anders Toft Pedersen \nOutside eye and RC-performer: Kai Merke \nMusic remix: Isadora Tomasi \nSpecial thanks: Angelica Stathopoulos \n  \nDeveloped with support from:  \nHIMHERANDIT\, Warehouse9 and Åbne Scene/Godsbanen – Queer Practice Residence 2025/26\, HAUT – IN PROCESS residency\, EHKÄ Contemporary Art Space Kutomo residency\, Performance space & PACT Sydney – Queer Development Program 2024\, Museion Bolzano – Opening the pill symposium 2022\, Arts Centre BUDA residency\, Jakoozi Amsterdam. \nMusic in piece: Aamourocean\, Britney Spears\, Cascada & Maurice West\, Chicane & Moya Brennan – The Thrillseekers remix\, Hole\, ORM. \n  \nGood to know:\n \nPossibility of close proximity to performer.\nSmoke in performance.\nLoud music at times.\nLanguage: English \n  \nIPAF:\nIPAF is Warehouse9’s international performance festival. The festival is a vital extension of the organisation’s dedicated work to support and present LGBTQIA+ artists and cultural practitioners. IPAF is a dynamic meeting place that creates opportunities for artistic development\, live performances\, and facilitates spaces for dialogue and community. \nThis year\, the festival is co-produced with Dansehallerne and presents genre-bending work in Copenhagen that actively engages with identity politics\, sexual expressions\, and body representations. IPAF is founded on the strong belief that dance and performance can offer new perspectives and understandings of reality\, inspire collective imagination\, and advocate for better and more just futures. \nIPAF is made possible with support from the Danish Arts Foundations\, the City of Copenhagen and Dansehallerne. \n  \nTickets:\ntickets are purchased via Dansehallernes website: https://dansehallerne.dk/en/public-program/\nNote that there is a sliding scale option. This means that we have introduced a “pay what you can” ticket system for the performances. You can apply this by choosing the “IPAF community ticket level 1-4”. \n  \nAccessibility:\nDansehallerne in Copenhagen offers good accessibility with step-free access via an elevator to all floors. Accessible and gender-neutral restrooms on the ground floor.
