Senzorium Institute for Sensorial Theatre and Research
The Senzorium Institute has produced several performances Walker of Sins [Sprehajalec grehov] (2002), City of Silence [Mesto tišine] (2003), To Be or To Have [Biti ali imeti] (2004), Unveiling [Odstiranja] (2006), all of which stimulate active participation of the individual spectator in the labyrinths of the senses. The 2008 event City of Sighs [Mesto vzdihljajev], evoking Slovenian national archetypal figures, took place in different locations throughout Ljubljana, while the 2009 performance In Vino Veritas? took the visitors on a journey of processing grapes into wine, helping them in a Dionysian manner to uncover the truth about themselves in wine and wine in themselves. The performance was part of an exhibition at the Slovene Ethnographic Museum, which was also the co-producer of the performance along with B-51 Cultural Society. In 2010, Jenič directed a multimedia event, a bow to spiritual affinity, the power of love, and faithfulness among friends, An Evening with Mila Kačič [Večer z Milo Kačič] (Mila Kačič - Slovene actress and singer), which included the actresses Ivanka Mežan, Štefka Drolc, and Iva Zupančič, and other singers, dancers, and interpreters. The event was co-produced with Slovene National Theatre (SNG) Ljubljana - Drama in partnership with Festival Ljubljana.
The Senzorium Institute has toured to Columbia, the UK, Denmark, Mexico, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and Germany, and has frequently been presented in Italy. Senzorium collaborates with actors, painters, sculptors, architects, writers, and designers, and organises various workshops for all age groups, e.g. Language of Smells, Imagination and Object Animation and Masks.
