Lisa Janbell
Lisa Janbell is a dancer and choreographer based in Stockholm. With an education in folk dance practices in Cuba, dancer training in Brazil and anthropology at Stockholm University, Lisa's practice and choreographic work specialises 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 shaped by suggestion, searching together for a place and an opening to the sacred. With the endeavour to reach deep presence and a common knowledge. Through a feminist and intersectional perspective, emotional labour, soft values and the shaping of caring spaces are highlighted. This artistic approach manifests itself in warm and welcoming spaces and environments where the audience can rest and be energised by detailed textures of movement materials and generous choreographic compositions.
In Lisa's choreographies, it is as if the dancers collectively use dance, movement and choreography to build a structure whose purpose is to keep this collective and individual presence alive. Lisa's choreographies carry a directness with a desire for the audience to share in this presence, to have a somatic experience, rather than to watch and analyse.

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 around Sweden, Europe and Cuba. She has also performed commissioned works such as the Studio Barnhus a/v show she choreographed for Studio Barnhus which played at Sónar, Barcelona, Way Out West, Gothenburg and Cirkus in Stockholm. In 2022, Lisa will develop the group work SEARCH with 8 dancers, at HALLEN in Farsta and two performance works with Dos Oké at Fylkingen.
