Luna Malekova is a solo designed by Martina Nevistić. Luna Malekova is a character as well, maybe even alter ego, and certainly a synonym for another world, another dimension, the world of imagination and the world of dreams. Through dance and multimedia, this project reaches for different fields of art to evoke the surreal world of Luna Malekova. Luna is a creature that tells stories, or does she speak at all? She is a creature that is present and absent at the same time; she is a daydreaming embodiment of what is spontaneous, direct, natural, simple, uninhibited and unrestrained. And as the music continues when the dance is over, it creates the atmosphere of the surreal world. The duality of the visible and the invisible, comprehensible and incomprehensible, regular and irregular, real and surreal is consistent with the concept of the “expanding space”, producing associative and non-associative series. Through this multi-media project, in her recognizable style Martina Nevistić once again questions the relation between the performer and the viewer, the meanings written into the body, and their perception on multiple levels.
Martina is an author, performer, teacher. She is the founder of O.N.E., artistic company through which she studies performing arts and multimedia. She graduated in organization and management in Zagreb and in dance from the Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance (SEAD), Austria.
