𝐕𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐜̌𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐧𝐨 𝐞𝐩𝐬𝐤𝐨 𝐦𝐨𝐤𝐫𝐨 je silovito in fizično intenzivno plesno delo, ki izziva podedovane predstave o junaštvu in hierarhiji. Predlaga drugačen ep — takšen, ki ga soustvarjajo številna telesa, ki skupaj krmarijo skozi krizo in nestabilnost. Slava ni več monumentalna; vzpostavlja se skozi medsebojno odvisnost, skupno vztrajanje in bežne solidarnosti, ki nastajajo na negotovem terenu.
»Naš prostor potrebuje nekaj novega; nekaj se je ustalilo in ne navdihuje več. Naj bodo prostori nov začetek.«
𝐒𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐯𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢 (Atene, Grčija) je koreografinja in soustanoviteljica mreže umetnikov Fingersix. Diplomirala je na ArtEZ (Arnhem) in Ekonomski fakulteti v Atenah.

@ public space at the Modern Gallery / Dance for All Festival, Ljubljana (SI)
Storm-like and physically charged, 𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐜 𝐖𝐞𝐭, challenges inherited notions of heroism and hierarchy. It proposes a different epic—one written by many bodies navigating crisis and instability together. Glory is no longer monumental; it emerges through interdependence, shared endurance, and fleeting solidarities formed within uncertain terrain.
“Our space needs something, something has become established and no longer inspires. Let the spaces be the beginning.”
𝐒𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐯𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢 (Athens, Greece) is a choreographer and co-founder of the artists’ network Fingersix. She graduated from ArtEZ (Arnhem) and the Athens University of Economics and Business.

She also develops projects in improvisation and composition that bring together artists from different disciplines and take place across Europe, Latin America, Africa, and Oceania.
