About Milica Tančić

Milica Tančić is a contemporary dancer with a great love for photography, video making, writing, and finding ways to intertwine them all. She escaped the tight grip of ballet and Serbia a couple of years ago to pursue new ways to express herself through the art of movement. Her journey landed her first in Budapest and now here, in Berlin. Despite the regular breakdowns, she has managed to ponder and reimagine her relation to art and her art’s relation to others, as well as her own ways of relating to others. This past year she has gathered and explored various questions and ideas that she is excited to use as a tool for sparking dialogue and artistic exchange.

identity crisis

these numbers mean nothing until you find out that it’s the digital version of my face

where am i in this mess

am i supposed to embrace this as a part of myself

i created a monster

it started off innocently

i swear

brainwaves

my worries are all nicely packed


number 1:

what if my father became an octopus and my brother  secretly wears a fabulous dress?

number 2:

is my friend exercising regularly at home? what if she is secretly jumping overly extended grand jetés while talking to me?

number 3:

what if my grandma became only legs with some weird purple greek guys running over them?

number 4:

what if when my friend’s screen is glitching he is actually being eaten by a huge colony of amoeba?

about my first stage

my first stage was somewhere between my living room, a scene from ‘Prince of Egypt’ and a full theater, fully realized only in my head and movement

i could only describe it as an extensive production of imagination, with characters constructed and intertwined by the logic of unconstricted creativity of a child

scenes vary from a gentle dance among the reed driven by something lost in the stream to a duet with a ninja turtle with Brahms’ melody accompanies the scenery

i long to feel like that now. absolute freedom of creation without boundaries of space and time and reason.

intermission of 141120

landscape of the park
was alive today
it moved and it was breathing
and i, in that moment
was alive today
i was there and
i was then
walking in the unknown
nothing to search for,
no one to chase
letting yourself to be taken &
walking in the unknown
but there is…there is
something
only a wish for you to
be there
i wish i could give you these
colors, this grainy air
and crunchy leaves
a smile in silence
a gaze in stillness
a shower in pink sunset
a walk into the unknown

eye of my eye

Šta je najbitnije? Zdravlje. Šta je najpotrebnije? Ljubav.

Šta je neophodno? Sloga. Šta je pokretač? Volja. Šta je nužno? Sloboda.
