In Benoîte, Hedvig Edvall Bons and Lou Zavattoni are working on the character of the shepherdess.
This figure, often represented in 17th- and 18th-century art through a masculine lens, is rarely associated with the hard work it truly involves. Between Southern Europe and the Nordic fäbodar, we trace the lives of women who lived at the edges of society. In the Swedish mountains, the voices of these women resonate as they guided their herds over long distances for months, bearing full responsibility for their survival.
By exploring our various tools: contemporary dance, dance-theatre, and partnering we seek to interpret this character in a way that reflects our own perspective.
In this work, we aim to shift the narrative from an idealized and romanticized image to one that acknowledges strength, labor, solitude, and freedom. A woman ahead of her time, fully in control of her daily life.
