Podcast: Jannika B dances "provocatively" – A long discussion was born

In a new podcast episode, artist Jannika B discusses body shame and social media comments regarding her provocative dance style.

In the latest episode of the Hanna Tikander podcast, Finnish artist Jannika B opens up about her experiences with body shame and the public's perception of her dance performances. She emphasizes that dance is a crucial medium for her self-expression, revealing how her recently released song 'Keho muistaa' and its music video sparked an extensive conversation on social media about body image and dance styles. 

Jannika B specifically recalls a comment from a woman who found her dance style to be bordering on inappropriate or 'pornographic.' This remark led to a deeper discussion about the fine line between art and perceived indecency in dance. Jannika has challenged her followers to reflect on their personal views regarding dance genres and what factors influence their perceptions of artistry in movement.

Through this podcast, Jannika not only shares her artistic journey but also addresses broader discussions around body positivity and the societal standards that often dictate what is considered acceptable in self-expression. Her willingness to engage with criticism demonstrates the importance of dialogue in navigating the complexities surrounding art and body image.
