Mille Lundt (DK)

She is a Danish-born artist based in Brussels since 2003. She studied theater in Copenhagen from 1995 and switched to circus studies in 1998. She studied at circus schools in; AFUK, Copenhagen, National circus schools in Havana (Cuba) Moscow (Russia), Kiev (Ukraine) and graduated from l’Ecole Supérieure
des Arts du Cirque in 2006 in Brussels (Belgium).
She is working and creating in the intersection of performance, circus art, visual art, documentary, sound and photography. Furthermore, She works as an artistic consultant/director on projects and teaches and gives workshops in different contexts. Central to her work is her body as a living tool for investigation and creation. In her practice, she constructs her choreographies through body sculpting by folding & unfolding to external environments. Her work tries to conceive the art’s ways of acting to break with the conventional and provide different angles.
Her prototype is Structures (time 25min)
Structureshas been developed in an immersion residency in the vineyards of Joseph Perrier, house of Champagne, together with Le Palc, National Circus Centre in Châlons-en-Champagne, France.
This project weaves together social ecology and contemporary circus through a connection to champagne.
Structures opens new perspectives for experiencing the landscape, questioning the relationship between body, architecture, sound, and nature.
The workers of the Joseph Perrier champagne house share the reality of a complex world, where the delicate balance between human beings, nature, and technology lies at the heart of their professional lives.
Mille expresses herself through a physical language shaped by improvisation processes, offering a contemporary and abstract form of expression in which movement adapts to the environment.
