Agnietė Lisičkinaitė & Igor Shugaleev
CLAP & SLAP is a performance by Agnietė Lisičkinaitė and Igor Shugaleev that explores the political tensions between Lithuania and Belarus in the context of Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Through dance, gestures, and short media excerpts, it invites reflection on guilt, responsibility, nationalism, and violence.

When Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, it plunged the entire region into complex geopolitical tensions that also affected the art world. Dance artists Agnietė Lisičkinaitė and Igor Shugaleev explore this uneasy state through the strained relationship between their home countries, Lithuania and Belarus.
With minimalistic costumes, gestures, and props, using short text and video sequences, they attempt an almost impossible dialogue.
Without claiming to offer political solutions, “CLAP & SLAP” provokes reflection on responsibility and guilt, nationalism and patriotism, self-defence and aggression.
