In Originally a plant, Maritea Dæhlin weaves languages together, reflecting the reality for many who traverse different cultures and geographies. They must leave space for interpretation, misunderstanding and lost words.

Creating a unique visual and sonic landscape on the DanceHouse stage, Dæhlin questions who is seen and heard, and who is not.

Maritea Dæhlin is an interdisciplinary artist who lives and works in Norway and Mexico. We are thrilled to continue our support for this exciting performer after the success of her video work, I WANT TO BE TRADITIONAL, in SPILL 2021.
