Lisa Janbell is a dancer and choreographer, based in Stockholm. With an education in folk dance practices in Cuba and dance training in Brazil as well as anthropology at Stockholm University, Lisa’s practice and choreographic work is specialized in ritual performance and ceremonial dance practices. As a central theme in her work, she explores collectivity in relation to the subconscious. The artistic work is formed through suggestions, to look together for a place and an opening to the transcendental. With the aspiration to reach a deep presence and a shared knowledge. Through a feminist and intersectional perspective, emotional work, soft values and the shaping of caring spaces are highlighted. This artistic strategy manifests itself in warm and welcoming spaces and environments where the audience can rest and draw strength in detailed textures of movement material and generous choreographic compositions such as Trans[e]ición (2015) Trans[e]ición club edition (2016) Studio Barnhus A/V Show (2018) KONTAKT (2020) Lead us (2021) SEARCH (2022). Lisa Janbell is the other half of the performance duo Dos Oké and the artistic director of the Swedish-Cuban dance collective SOMOS since 2012. Lisa Janbell’s self-produced works have toured Sweden, Europe and Cuba. She has created commissions for, among others, Studio Barnhus with performances at Sónar (Barcelona), Way Out west (Gothenburg) and Cirkus (Stockholm). During 2022, Lisa develops the group piece SEARCH with eight dancers at HALLEN in Farsta and two performance pieces with Dos Oké at Fylkingen.
