EVERGREEN

EVERGREEN is Eivind Seljeseth´s exam work from his MA study choreography at Oslo National Academy of the Arts. Evergreen arose from an exploration of illusions, perceptions of reality, imitations and imaginations.

"The landscape is discovered one more time and displaced in a mirage. Some got lost in the spaces of a show that never rots. Evergreen arises from an exploration of illusions, perceptions of reality, imitations and imaginations. A show that is trying to both lie and tell a truth."
