About me
Contemporary dance artist, based in London. Choreographer and performer. Strong improvisation and contact improvisation skills. Stage, film, site-specific, galleries.Additional information:
Born in London, Celina trained extensively both in the UK and France in theatre, singing and music before attending the London Contemporary Dance School where she graduated with a first class degree in contemporary dance. During this time she also studied at the California Institute of the Arts where she worked with Lucky Plush Productions choreographer Julia Rhoads, performing at the Walt Disney Modular Theater and REDCAT Los Angeles. She later undertook JV2 Professional Development Certificate where she performed alongside Jasmin Vardimon Company in Maze as well as on JV2’s UK Tour.
She was a founding member of Kinetic Dance Company, has performed with Cando2 and during her training worked with Delphine Gaboritz and Frauke Requardt, also performing works by Julia Rhoads, Rick Nodine, Joe Moran and Eva Recacha.
Celina has been choreographing for a number of years, notably in installation and site specific settings, as well as in film and on stage. Her work tends to place a strong focus on the spectator’s participation and their role within each piece, be it active or passive. Often commenting on social or political lines of question, her use of humour and realism endeavours to ensure the work remains accessible to a wide range of audiences. Her work has been presented both nationally and internationally in venues including, the Victoria and Albert Museum, V22, Linbury Studio Theatre (Royal Opera House), Robin Howard Dance Theatre, Peckham Space, South London Gallery, Galeria Walk&Talk (PO) and the Sharon Disney Lund Dance Theatre (US).
