My name is Elinor Tollerz Bratteby (she/her) and I am a dancer and artist. I was born 1990 in Uppsala, Sweden, and now I am based in Stockholm. I have been working on fields of dance and choreography since 2012, mainly in collaboration with brilliant independent artists in Scandinavia, Europe, North America and East Asia.
Even though my entry point inevitably is dance and choreography, my approach to art-making and artistic research is somewhat non-disciplinary with an emphasis on experimental handling of materials and situations. In my work, I am letting dance and choreography find their way into other fields of knowledge, like philosophy, feminism or metaphysics, and other art forms, like music, fashion, poetry or photography, for the sake of endless surprise when one warps the other.
