On Earth I’m Done: Islands

Jefta van Dinther

is a choreographer and dancer based in Berlin. He grew up in Sweden, after which he moved to the Netherlands and graduated from the Amsterdam School of the Arts. Van Dinther’s works deal with notions of illusion, the visible and the invisible, synaesthesia, darkness, labour, the uncanny, affect, voice and image. They often play with presentation formats ranging from traditional dispositifs to installation-like settings, from smaller intimate performances to large-scale productions. Jefta van Dinther has realised several ensemble works with Cullberg, such as Plateau Effect, Protagonist and On Earth I’m Done: Mountains. His works include the international successes, The Quiet and Dark Field Analysis, and he created the choreography for the music video Monument by Röyksopp & Robyn. Together with Alma Söderberg and Deborah Hay, he was an ‘Associated Artist’ at Cullberg, 2019–2022. jeftavandinther.com

Cullberg

is a national and international contemporary dance company based in Botkyrka outside Stockholm, founded by Birgit Cullberg in 1967. Together with invited choreographers and artistic teams, we give space and time to in-depth work where we investigate what dance and choreography can be and how dance can be produced and presented. Together we create a repertoire that comments on and reflects the present. We work continuously so that a large audience in Sweden and internationally can experience contemporary dance. Kristine Slettevold is the artistic director, and Stina Dahlström is the managing director. Cullberg is part of Riksteatern – The Swedish National Touring Theatre. cullberg.com
