Sandra Chatterjee – SMELLS OF RACISM
What does racism smell like? From everyday prejudices against different body odours or different fragrance traditions to the philosophical treatises of Immanuel Kant: The connection between smell and racism has a long (western) tradition. With the installation and participatory performance SMELLS OF RACISM, choreographer Sandra Chatterjee and her team deal with the cultural and political dimensions of smells.

Sandra Chatterjee is a choreographer and researcher in the field of culture and performance as well as dance science. Current projects include the research project Border – Dancing Across Time (FWF P 31 958-G) at the University of Salzburg and the organization of the platform CHAKKARs – Moving Interventions. In her work with a focus on gender, migration and postcolonial studies, she always explores the intersection between theory and artistic practice. She was a guest professor for dance science at the ZZT Centre for Contemporary Dance of the University of Music and Dance in Cologne. She is part of the Rutgers Arts Online Faculty and is a lecturer at the University of Salzburg.

The Handle with Care series grants sneak peeks into processes of artistic creation, experimenting with new formats and creating spaces for talking and the exchanging of views. Artists get the chance to try out parts of their work in front of a small audience, to receive feedback and to turn spectators into accomplices.

FREISCHWIMMEN is an international exchange and production platform for young groups and artists* from theatre and performance. It is supported by brut Wien, FFT Düsseldorf, Gessnerallee Zürich, HochX München, LOFFT – DAS THEATER Leipzig, Schwankhalle Bremen, Sophiensæle Berlin, and Theater Rampe Stuttgart.
