{Nightfall} {Post-xxx} {feeling in the doing}

Accompanied by a sentimental darkness, Nyxxx proposes an erotic dance for the night of the present day. Lau Lukkarila is inspired by the fierce character of Nyx, the Greek goddess of the Night, an allegory for the erotic. Clandestine dances, light, electronic music and video compose a post-romantic nightfall that brings on stage emotional choreographies and absurd live acts, all contributing to an atmosphere of a slightly scary arousal.

Lau Lukkarila investigates the erotic through lived experience, movement qualities and the idea of the emotional body. They emphasizes the quality of feeling in the doing, beyond the mere act of doing itself. Why is erotic simultaneously so cruel and so nurturing? In a world of post-xxx, what does it mean to become an engineer of one’s own desires? What has happened to catharsis? Does erotic still have a chance?

Lau Lukkarila is a choreographer and performer currently based in Vienna. They studied theatre, acting, contemporary dance, voice and performance at Metropolia University of Applied Sciences (Helsinki) and the Royal School of Performing Arts (Madrid). In 2018 they received the Austrian Federal Chancellor’s Office’s START scholarship for music and performing arts as well as the danceWEB Scholarship at ImPulsTanz Festival. In 2019 they performed the solo work Trouble at Rakete Festival at Tanzquartier Wien. www.laulukkarila.com
