ARTIST BIO

Johanna Nielson (AT), performer, choreographer and pedagogue, lives and works in Vienna. Besides dancing since the age of 4, beeing surrounded by dance- and performance art ever since, she also studied contemporary dance and dance pedagogy in Linz. Her practice involves dance, real time creation and sound with a focus on phenomena of the sensual and the sensable. Johanna creates fluid performative formats and spaces, in which different disciplines encounter and audience-performer relationships are challenged. In collaboration with Agnes Schneidewind she is working on a series of performative experiments dealing with mechanisms of translation. They dive into processes and create performances that play post-esoterically with the potential of body practices and perceptions. (Rumpuls, performance series AH I SEE). On the interaction of (experimental) music and dance she investigates with the artists* Marina Poleukhina, Magdalena Chowaniec, Stefan Voglsinger, Jakob Schauer, Patric Redl or the Phoenix Baroque Austria Ensemble. Among others she performed with Inge Kaindlsdorfer/lux flux, Theresa Luise Gindlstrasser, Claire Lefèvre, Florentina Holzinger, Evandro Pedroni, Arne Mannott, Alexander Chernyshkov/Error Theater and Oleg Soulimenko. She received the DanceWEB Stipendium for ImpulsTanz 2017. She also is a board member of Im_flieger - KünstlerInnen Initiative and works for Wiener Frauenhäuser.
