Moving Identities: Artefactourists (EST)
April 2024
Artefactourists are a collective of five members from Estonia: four choreographers (Valeria Januškevitš, Keity Pook, Sigrid Savi, Kadri Sirel) and a dramaturge (Kerli Ever). Artefactourism, a neologism created by the group, means the act of remembering that is triggered by places and artefacts. Artefactourists believe that these everyday journeys in time and space form our individual and collective identities, but also include ways of rerouting.
Artefactourists are not only alternative archivists who map the historical and emotional narratives of a place, but also tour guides offering performative tours. These tours explore the power of narratives and read urban spaces as both repositories and catalysts for individual and collective identities. The tours are one stop in the Artefactourists’ journey of developing a nomadic co-creation method that can host several trajectories while maintaining a common ground..
