Alchemy is the dream of chemically producing gold or the elixir of life. Originating in 4th century Egypt it is today known to be pseudo-scientific, but its symbols and dreams live on in art, literature and the occult. And in dance.
"I want to operate in the field between science and art, where alchemy lies. In 'Attempting Alchemy', we juxtapose dance with art, science and alchemy, in the hopes that this will result in a magical brew." Ludvig Daae, choreographer
In Ludvig Daae's new dance performance 'Attempting Alchemy', he's on a quest for golden moments. Transforming ordinary movements, themes and objects into beauty, magic and gold as a reminder to us all of our inherent potential to change and be changed.
