After the premiere ten years ago in Helsinki, Pint After the premiere ten years ago in Helsinki, Pinta (Surface) has been presented in quite a few venues and events here and there. We’ve visited Turku, Oulu and Imatra in Finland and also presented the piece in Sweden, Estonia, Lithuania, England, France, Italy and Mexico. Hope I didn’t forget any? The latest show was in Joensuu, Finland between covid lockdowns - the latest so far. Pinta (Surface) is, still, maybe my favourite show to play so I’m looking forward to bringing it to new places and audiences in the years to come 🔮 Pinta (Surface) Concept: Salla Hakanpää & the creative team Direction: Ville Walo Performer: Salla Hakanpää Sound design: Tuuli Kyttälä Costumes and stage design: Anne Jämsä Lighting design: Ainu Palmu Filming: Teemu Liakka Editing: Matias Boettge Production: WHS & Zero Gravity Company Co-production: Cirko – Center for New Circus Supported by: Finnish Cultural Foundation's Uusimaa Regional Fund, Helsinki City Cultural Office, Arts Promotion Cetre Finland, Arts Council of Uusimaa, Alfred Kordelin Foundation Photos: Jouni Ihalainen . . . . . . . . . . . #verticalrope #cordelisse #aerialistsofig #aerialacrobatics #aerialrope #contemporarycircus #circusperformance #performingarts #performingartist #circusarts #sallahakanpää #sallahakanpaa #aerialist #aerialart #aerialarts #artistatwork
”Pinta is a flawlessly considered and cut diamon ”Pinta is a flawlessly considered and cut diamond, maybe the most exceptional and original performance that I have ever seen with a rope.” Helsingin Sanomat 1.1.2013 Jussi Tossavainen ”Pinta is bright and beautiful, a bull’s eye produced by the expertise of several top artists in their own fields. In Pinta the team's arts intertwine like strands of a rope. One couldn’t be distinguished from the other.” Kaleva 23.8.2014 Eeva Kauppinen ”The performance is as clear as the water of a forest spring. It reminds of the importance of life’s dark, smothering undercurrent for the birth of genuine liberation, purification and joy. - - The carefully chosen elements, Hakanpää’s presence and the intensity which has been skilfully increased right from the beginning of the performance, stir the viewer’s emotions. - - Hakanpää possesses deep understanding of her art form, sovereign control over her instrument and first class skill in performing.” Teatteri&Tanssi+Sirkus 1/2014 Nina Jääskeläinen Concept: Salla Hakanpää & the creative team Direction: Ville Walo Performer: Salla Hakanpää Sound design: Tuuli Kyttälä Costumes and stage design: Anne Jämsä Lighting design: Ainu Palmu Filming: Teemu Liakka Editing: Matias Boettge Production: WHS & Zero Gravity Company Co-production: Cirko – Center for New Circus Supported by: Finnish Cultural Foundation's Uusimaa Regional Fund, Helsinki City Cultural Office, Arts Promotion Cetre Finland, Arts Council of Uusimaa, Alfred Kordelin Foundation Photography: Tom Hakala . . . . . . . . . #verticalrope #cordelisse #aerialistsofig #aerialacrobatics #aerialrope #contemporarycircus #circusperformance #performingarts #performingartist #circusarts #sallahakanpää #sallahakanpaa #aerialist #aerialart #aerialarts #artistatwork #portrait #artistportrait #waterportraits
