Concept, research, choreography & performance: Laura Kassé, Bahar Meriç
Visual Design: Jo Kolski
Sound Design: Norbert Lang
“(M)Otherhood” is designed as a performative installation that combines dance, video, and sound. Together with the video artist Jo Kolski and the sound artist Norbert Lang, dance artists Laura Kassé and Bahar Meriç are creating a space where movement, visual layers, and sound converge into a multi-layered, walk-through experience.
Thematically, Bahar and Laura are bringing together their individual research on the subject of motherhood. “(M)Otherhood” explores motherhood not merely as a space of caregiving, but as a conflict-laden realm where generations, bodies, and contradictory expectations overlap. At its core is the question: What do mothers pass on to their children—and what do daughters want to do differently? Which behaviors, emotions, or patterns remain stored in the body, and where do ruptures and new paths emerge?
ada19 is ada Studio’s newest performance format. It aligns with ada Studio’s fundamental commitment to fostering greater sustainability in dance practices and to providing long-term support for choreographers who have presented their first works at ada Studio. The addition of the term "Companionship/Kompliz*innenschaft" (Complicity) highlights the goal of working collaboratively on an artistic vision within a non-hierarchical constellation.
