The dance floor featured the basic steps of four ballroom dances – the waltz, tango, foxtrot and cha-cha-cha. People learned to dance both in the company of dance teachers and following the step drawings on the dance floor. The performances were held as festive events featuring live music and performances with professional dancers. A new version of the work (only featuring steps for the tango) was created for the Intersection: Intimacy and Spectacle project that took place during the Prague Quadrennial of Performance Design and Space in 2011. It went on to be exhibited in Prague, Italy, Riga and Slovakia. In each of these places, the work was made anew. Likewise, a replica will be made for Mobile Museum. Next Season.

Dace Džeriņa (1971) is an artist and stage designer combining several media in her work, namely installation, stage design, video installation and computer graphics. Her works can be characterized as feminine (but not feminist) observations of the nature of things and processes, which integrate both a fragile emotionality and a distant reflection. There’s a strand in her work that invites enjoying and consuming art: the processuality, engagement with the audience, conviviality and joie de vivre present in them bring elements of play and interactivity to the fore, allowing not only to observe but use art as well. Another characteristic motif of hers is concentrating upon an introverted perception of things through completely particular physical conditions in the bodily reactions of the artist herself. She graduated the Department of Creative Leatherworking at the Liepāja Art and Design Secondary School in 1990 and obtained a master’s degree at the Department of Visual Communication of the Art Academy of Latvia in 2000. She has participated in exhibitions since 1998.
