BIOGRAPHY

Laura Linna is a Finnish dancer and dancemaker based in Stockholm. Her work often takes its starting point from dancing, producing and relating to sound, 'practice-ing' and zooming in. In choreographic and performative settings, she's curious about space - peripheries, orientations and shifting centres - as well as relations between bodies - through fictional hierarchies, touch, mechanics of the body and shared weight. 

 

Laura graduated from Stockholm University of the Arts (SKH/DOCH) in 2023 with a BA in Dance Performance. During her studies, she has performed in pieces by Yared Tilahun Cederlund, Ofelia Jarl Ortega, Liz Kinoshita, QUARTO, Gergő D. Farkas, and others. After graduating, she has worked and interned with choreographers such as Ofelia Jarl Ortega and Cristina Caprioli, while choreographing and performing works in collaborative settings. She has also worked in the production team of the feminist art community UrbanApa in close collaboration with the community's artistic director and choreographer, Sonya Lindfors.
