Lisen Pousette & Olivia Rivière

DUNKEL

When Olivia Rivière and Lisen Pousette met at the age of eleven at choir school in Stockholm, they couldn’t have known the paths their shared interest in the voice and all things choir would eventually lead them: in their group piece DUNKEL, a “choreographic choir” of six performers explores “growling” – a throat-singing technique rooted in the metal scene – grounding the voice deep in the body and propelling it outward with ecstatic force. Yet DUNKEL does not dwell solely in raw intensity; instead, it traces the fragility and subtlety of the voice and the sounding body, creating a resonant, entangled space where voices move beyond the individual. A performance the duo calls “both doomsday-doom and as light as a down duvet” – oscillating between heaviness and airiness, between the intimate and the eruptive.
