Ene-Liis Semperi autorilavastuste hübriidne esteetika
The Hybrid Aesthetics of the Auteur Theatre of Ene-Liis Semper

Summary/Abstract: The article examines the artistic ideas and strategies of Ene-Liis Semper (b. 1969) in her three stage productions that premiered in Theatre NO99 in 2014–2017, and focuses on the distinctive aesthetics of these productions, influenced by contemporary visual art. The spatiality (including atmospheres), temporality and corporeality of the productions are analysed, as well as the main performing strategies. Parallels are drawn with Semper’s video works at the 2011 solo exhibition in the Kumu Art Museum. Semper’s productions are examined in the conceptual framework of hybridity, which is characteristic of present-day post-dramatic theatre.
