However, several studies show that structures and norms may prevent human beings from participating in artistic and cultural activities. Moreover, it is not given that all forms of participation offer meaningful experiences, something which puts a great responsibility upon organizers of artistic events. The current study is based in a project where elderly people were given the chance to participate in processes of development and performance of collaborative contemporary dance. The specific aim of the study was to describe and analyse the phenomenon of the meaningful body based on a phenomenological approach. To get access to the dancers’ lived experiences, six participants were interviewed. The transcribed interviews were analysed in a phenomenological manner. The analysis resulted in three themes, which together describe the phenomenon of the lived body, namely: the intertwined body, the border-crossing body, and the body feeling at home. The themes are related to phenomenological philosophy regarding aging, awareness, existence, and aesthetic experience, as well as to art education situations and societal norms.\u0000Keywords: elderly dancers, meaningful body, phenomenology, intertwinement, border-crossing, joy\u0000Webpage photo: Anders Larsson \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":344267,"journal":{"name":"Nordic Journal of Art & Research","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124467299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Border Threads","authors":"Camilla Dahl","doi":"10.7577/ar.5062","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7577/ar.5062","url":null,"abstract":"The art project Border Threads was based on mobilising a collaborative art community across international borders within a time frame of five months. The collaborative community had subcommunities and individual participants in five countries. In addition, individuals participated at three open workshops in Oslo. Many among these participants were refugees in exile in Syria, Lebanon, Greece and Turkey. \u0000This article discusses how artistic intentions and ethical issues of user involvement in art constitute a driving force for the methods used in the project Border Threads, a collaborative artwork in the form of a textile tapestry consisting of more than 300 individual textile artworks reflecting the participants thoughts about borders. Working with subcommunities encompassing school classes in Norway and Syria, a women’s collective in Turkey, a network of women in Lebanon, and a group of women in a refugee camp in Greece, the project addresses questions about community relations, representation of others, and about contributing to something meaningful when working with participants in a collaborative art project. Discussions of these questions are based on theory from various disciplines, mostly art theory, and evolve around topics such as artistic intention, self-reflection, community building, time, participant payment, and ethics in general. \u0000The article describes how using methods, experience and existing networks from an interdisciplinary background within art, ethnography, social sciences, innovation, welfare services and activism was important throughout the project. Following the discussion and a retrospective reflection on the process, some proposals are outlined for further development of the Border Threads project.","PeriodicalId":344267,"journal":{"name":"Nordic Journal of Art & Research","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121972832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
