"Coin Operated" comes as a performance/installation directed to unconventional spaces, where the dialogue with the public is direct and the continuity of the performance depends on the dynamics of that same dialogue. The mutation between installation and performance occurs through an audience that is invited to introduce €1 coins into the slot of two horses where Jonas and Lander are sitting in asphyxiating immobility. From that moment, when the connection between horse and coin takes place, the installation ends to give way to performance. With this work, Jonas&Lander intend a new approach to the spectator, in which it starts to take an active role in the consequence and dynamics of the action, celebrating an unexpected dialogue with each presentation.
"Coin Operated" appears on the artistic journey of Jonas&Lander by the invitation of BoCA - Biennial of Contemporary Arts.

Jonas&Lander, a duo of Portuguese choreographers, have contributed to each other's imaginary since 2011 when they began their collaboration. They stood out with Cascas d'OvO, a work that took them to several national and international stages. Since then, and until 2017, they have also created and presented Matilda Carlota, Arrastão and Adorabilis.
They were distinguished as "Aerowaves Priority Company" in 2014 and 2017. In 2019, they premiere Lento e Largo, a show coproduced by Rede 5 Sentidos, Teatro do Bairro Alto and Teatro Freiburg (Germany), nominated by SPA for Best Choreography of 2019, and Coin Operated, in coproduction with BoCA - Biennial of Contemporary Arts. In 2021, Jonas&Lander propose to rescue the lost dances of Fado, in a hybrid show between music and dance, Bate Fado, which premiered at the DDD Festival, and has been a national and international success, having been nominated by the newspapers Expresso and Público as the best dance show of the year. Coin Operated was presented also at the Avignon Festival in 2025.
