Mette Ingvartsen is a Danish choreographer and dancer. Her work is characterized by hybridity and engages in extending choreographic practices by combining dance and movement with other domains such as visual art, technology, language and theory. Her first performances (2003-2009) questioned affection, perception, and sensation in relation to bodily representation. In The Artificial Nature Series (2009-2012), she focused on reconfiguring the relations between human and non-human agency through choreography. Ingvartsen established her company in 2003 and her work has since been shown throughout Europe, as well as in the U.S, Canada, Australia, and Asia. She has been artist-in-residence at Kaaitheater in Brussels (2012-2016), Volksbühne in Berlin, and associated to the APAP network. Graduated from the performing arts school P.A.R.T.S in 2004, she holds a PhD in choreography from Stockholm University of the Arts / Lund University. Besides making, performing, writing, and lecturing, her practice also includes teaching and sharing research through workshops with students at universities and art schools. By contrast her latest series, The Red Pieces (2014-2017), inscribes itself into a history of human performance with a focus on nudity, sexuality and how the body historically has been a site for political struggles. And, from 2019, she focuses on themes such as the interconnectedness between humans, technological tools and natural materials or migration issues.
