Alex Blondeau
Alex Blondeau is a French dancer, choreographer and teacher. Since graduating from the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Lyon(CNSMDL) in 2017, she has worked with internationally renowned companies and artists including Maguy Marin, Cullberg, Rosas, Skånes Dansteater, Anouk van Dijk, Christian & François Ben Aïm and OFFprojects.
Alongside her career as a performer, Alex has developed her own choreographic practice through short works presented in diverse interdisciplinary contexts, while regularly teaching, leading workshops and facilitating artistic transmission.
She is currently creating her first full-length work, ÉCHELLE 1. (working title), a solo developed in collaboration with artist and designer Anna Saint Pierre. Bringing together dance and visual arts, the project explores the relationships between body, material and transformation, investigating how texture, density and resistance can shape physical states.
Alex's research focuses on movement as a way of giving form to the body's internal fluctuations, making visible the traces left by physical encounters and embodied experience.

 

CAKE collective
CAKE collective is a collaborative project by dancers and choreographers Ingrid Haakstad (NO) and Orfee Schuijt (FR/NL), and percussionist and performer Jennifer Torrence (USA), based in Oslo. The three artists bring together practices rooted in contemporary dance, choreography, experimental music, improvisation and collaborative performance. Haakstad works cocreatively across dance and performance, while Schuijt’s multidisciplinary practice explores the sensuous relationships between animated and inanimate bodies. Torrence is an internationally active percussionist, performer and artistic researcher whose work investigates the body, physicality and expanded forms of collaboration in contemporary music.
Working somewhere between dance, sound and improvisation, CAKE experiments like a band, using sounding objects, materials and bodies as equal performers. Together they create a shared terrain de jeux—a playground where movement and sound can separate, collide and create unexpected repercussions.

From 2025 to 2027, Guilhem Chatir is an Associate Artist at Concertgebouw Brugge.

 

Jonas Chéreau
Jonas Chéreau is a choreographer and dancer who sees the stage as a playground where suspended moments emerge, balancing abstraction and absurdity.

Chaemin Jeong
Chaemin Jeong is a choreographer and performer whose practice explores the relationship between individuals and society through perception. Her recent work focuses on violence, not as an event that happens to an individual, but as something repeated and operating within social structures. She traces how violence becomes embedded in the body, with particular attention to forms of violence that are internalized without our awareness.
Her current work approaches silence not as the absence of sound, but as something that asks to be listened to. Through choreography and sound, she explores memories accumulated in the body and experiences that cannot be easily articulated through language, inviting audiences to encounter listening as an active and ethical act.
Trained at London Contemporary Dance School and Korea National University of Arts, Jeong has developed her practice across contemporary dance, public-space performance, and museum contexts. Her experience includes project-based work for the Korea National Contemporary Dance Company, a residency at Seoul Dance Center, and participation in works by artists including Kuik Swee Boon, Tino Sehgal, and Minjae Lee.

 

Marikki Nyfors
Marikki Nyfors is a Finnish artist working with contemporary dance, performance, music, storytelling, writing and film. She graduated from the STUDIOS MA program in P.A.R.T.S. in 2024, and is since working project-based in various fields of art. Inspired by songs, objects, personal narratives, language, and play, she creates performance works for different ages and audiences. 
Her multidisciplinary practice seeks for emotional engagement. Marikki loves collage, playground slides, the organ, and desperately finding meaning in connections and coincidences. In her textual and sound-based work, she often employs sampling — interweaving familiar references and intertextual elements into new compositions. The question of objecthood consistently accompanies her artistic research. She works a lot with humour and (self-)irony as ways of accessing complex matters.
When Marikki writes, language becomes her playground. 
She makes music under the moniker Juisles, and is also a DJ.

 

Zenon Zubyk
Zenon Zubyk is a Canadian-born choreographer, director and performance artist working at the intersection of dance, theatre and time-based practices. His work is rooted in movement research and uses the body to explore the absurd, existential questions and personal experiences of time. He is interested in challenging conventional modes of spectatorship and creating resonant atmospheres that are experienced as much as observed.
As a performer, Zenon has worked with internationally renowned choreographers including William Forsythe, Crystal Pite, Hofesh Shechter, Sharon Eyal, Ohad Naharin and Marcos Morau, performing with companies such as Nederlands Dans Theater 1, GöteborgsOperans Danskompani and Ballet BC. Alongside his performance career, he develops his own choreographic and interdisciplinary work across live performance, sound and visual practices, exploring the tension between rehearsed and spontaneous states and questioning the boundaries of live performance.
