Agnes Schneidewind (AT) (*1986, she/her) is an artist, performer, and researcher in the field of somatic choreography and performative poetry. Based on dream practices, she works with dance, text, and drawing in site-specific and process-oriented contexts. She co-creates experimental formats and performances—such as “through which they have wandered” (2022, with Johanna Nielson and Zoumana Méïtè) and “eleven. each print in the mud fills with honey” (2021, with Johanna Nielson and Marina Poleukhina), both co-produced by brut Wien. She studied philosophy and further training in choreography, dance, and craniosacral bodywork. In 2017, Schneidewind completed the postgraduate artistic research program a.pass (advanced performance and scenography studies) in Brussels. Her work has been supported by residencies and production grants from, among others, the Austrian Federal Ministry of Arts and Culture and the Cultural Department of the City of Vienna. She regularly works in dialogical constellations with artists such as Sabina Holzer, Iris Dittler, Jack Hauser, Robert Steijn, Elina Lautamäki, Marta Forsberg, and the considering network. For several years, she has been exploring physical experiences of darkness and the intertwining of inner and outer landscapes. From a three-week Arctic night in Longyearbyen, she developed the piece “I want to be delicious for the bear” (2024). She is currently artist in residence at the Kuffner Observatory in Vienna. https://sjnijdewindt.works

Johanna Nielson (AT) is (also) a dance and performance artist, who lives and works in Vienna. Her artistic practice involves dance, voice and improvisation with a focus on phenomena of the sensual and sense-able. In collaboration with Agnes Schneidewind she made a series of performative experiments (AH I SEE) dealing with mechanisms of translation and perception. Johanna explores the interplay of (experimental) music and dance with such artists as Tobias Leibetseder, Marina Poleukhina and Stefan Voglsinger. She performed with luxflux, Arne Mannott, Alexander Chernishkov/Error Theater, Evandro Pedroni, Oleg Soulimenko, and many more. www.johannanielson.com
