We invite you to meet artist Birgitte Skands, who will give you an insight into her artistic practice.
As an experienced dancer and ever-curious choreographer, Skands uses her deep experience and cross-aesthetic movement language to inspire new perspectives.
With her latest project STILL / DANCING / BODY, she challenges traditional narratives in the dance field by rethinking who performs on stage and who creates the performances.
