FORLENGELSER: EXTRACTS

The earliest dated extract in this series comes from 2014. It introduces questions of space, contact and exchange that continue through Rannei Grenne’s practice and Forlengelser.

WHAT SPACE ARE WE CREATING TOGETHER?

14.12.2014

“When I dance I think about the space I am in. Thinking about what I see. Thinking about what shape I have. Thinking about the energy I am sending out. Thinking about what space I am creating. What shape I am creating.

Thinking about who I may be dancing with. Thinking about the space we may be creating together, the shapes we have, the shapes we create.

Feeling the energy that spreads around in my body, and further out from my body, and how it sticks to the room, to the walls, the floor, the ceiling, the person or people I may be dancing with.”

In Forlengelser, the choreography extends into the room, its materials, architecture and audience through a collaboration between Rannei Grenne and BUTCHER & CORREIA Studio.

First produced at BABEL, Trondheim, in December 2025, its presentation at PINK continues a partnership between the two artist-led organisations that began in 2024.

Forlengelser is part of our Presented by PINK programme.

Come along at any point and spend as long with the work as you choose.

FORLENGELSER: EXTRACTS

These extracts from Rannei Grenne’s working notes trace a practice sustained through repetition—not as a fixed routine, but as a way of questioning, changing and moving material into new contexts.

HOW CAN PRACTICE LEAD TO CHANGE?

07.03.2023

“Is it reproduction or is it an investigation of how you can take a material further into a new context/exploration/etc?”

21.02.2024

“How to create versus reproduce? How can practice lead to change and exploration rather than reproduction?

What do I bring into the next project? How does the previous project affect the next? How can I renew, to create change?

My previous movements are always with me, but how do I relate to them and how do I move forward?

What makes us make which choices, what influence do we have to make the choice, and what influence does the choice have?”

Emerging from a continuous dance practice of more than ten years, Forlengelser asks what it means to remain with a practice and allow it to change through contact with other bodies, materials and ways of working.

First produced at BABEL, Trondheim, in December 2025, its presentation at PINK continues a partnership between the two artist-led organisations that began in 2024.

Forlengelser is part of our Presented by PINK programme.

Come along at any point and spend as long with the work as you choose.

Unfortunately we've had to cancel the forthcoming Church Andrews & @mattdaviesdrums gig we had lined up at @pinkmcr_

@kirk_barley (aka Church Andrews) has recently undergone knee surgery & the recovery period is longer than initially expected.

Apologies to those looking forward to the gig. We all tried our best to rearrange the gig for later in the year / early next year but we couldn't find a date that worked for everyone involved.

Customers will receive a face value refund within the next 3 working days. You do not need to contact Skiddle as this will be processed automatically onto the card you originally paid with. You will also receive an automated email once the face value refund has been processed.

In the meantime we wish Kirk well with his recovery & look forward to seeing him, Matt & @elsahewittx perform at some point in the future. taken in PINK Manchester by @pinkmcr_
