Biografie

Emilie Gallier (France, 1984) is a choreographer and researcher. Working from people’s implicatedness with each other’s secret worlds, with the worlds of dreams and of imagination, is at the heart of her choreographer’s practice. For over a decade she has been in search for invisible movements by using
the writing and the reading of movement as tools. She wrote scores for the audience to read and experimented with the sharing of individual expertise in the real time of performance (Twists in the Body of the Big Spectator, 2013-15). She designed a book as a performance and observed the place of expectation in people’s reading (sync 2012).
Today, her choreographic practice focuses on designing performance landscapes where audience, performers and objects evolve; they contemplate, and they read (often in the literal sense). She uses dance in its written and performed forms as her main medium that then expands into collaborative fields, for instance: graphic design and magic.
This practice translates into performance works, scores, choreographic books, hybrid articles, lecture performances, and research papers.
