Vincent Jonsson
Dance-Artist
My artistic practice is an ongoing exploration of how dance encounters and is encountered, from a practitioner’s inside perspective as well as the audience outside perspective. Both on stage and in social dance settings. It is in this gray-zone of meetings, encounters and context my work unfolds. It makes my work relational, plastic, iterative, it is grounded in the transformative potential of dance and encounters. My practice moves between dancing, performing, teaching and choreographing.
