Augustine Collective
5 women artists from different cultures, creating and developing their movement and performative skills together as a collective since 2013. meeting once a year to practice, update and develop their artistic work with a lot of digesting time in between.
MY PIECE creation and evolution process
Coming back to Aarhus to premiere MY PIECE, after 2 years of granule creation. This ongoing, participatory project developed during several creation phases in Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Israel. Each encounter is a unique and special experience, leading us to the next event- pouring our interests from one show to the other.
MY PIECE Aarhus Premiere
This piece is about authorship and honorship in art making and life. We pass through the many different states of being between observing an art piece and becoming parts of it.
Augustine Collective puts light on the fact that everyone being present at the theatre, is part of the performative event. The collective opens up their work to be shared on another level- Everyone present in the theatre space, agrees on the fact that we are all parts and pieces of the total event.
The Augustine Collective is not asking the public members to invent the piece but to be aware of the way they read it, and how their understanding of the piece influences the outcomes.
The participants then have the right to use, copy and further develop ideas from MY PIECE.

Diving into a dynamic architecture that includes the fluid-vibrating shell shaped cochlea, the utricle with its gravity indicating crystals, and the labyrinth of the vestibular system with its semicircular canals- corresponding to the three planes.

My Piece Practices
A rich, complex yet so simple dance. We tune towards the dances of the day to happen in space and between us. ‘Passing Dances’ is playing with constantly passing a solo between us.
Taking place in an ensemble network and is a central practice in the distributed, de-centralized performance of My Piece.
