SERAFINE1369 is a choreographer. They work with/in the context of the hostile architectures of the metropolis towards moments and states of transcendence. Cycles, time and haunting are recurring themes in their work which they describe as being an oracular practice. Their current research is thinking of the intimate technology of dancing as a form of dowsing. 

SERAFINE1369 makes work that deals in intensities; atmospheres created by the tensions between things that make meaning, implicating the bodies of audiences as well as performers.Their work is underpinned by their interest in the invisible systems and structures that choreograph bodies in life. 

SERAFINE1369’s approach acknowledges the cosmic oneness of all things as manifested through ecologies of relation and the fact that everything is made of the same stuff. They are intensely curious about the magic and mysteries of life-processes of distinction, variation, cycles, decomposition; the inevitability of movement. 

Their practice is concerned with the integrity and efficacy of structures (bodily and social), collaboration, hosting and an interest in somatics, semiotics and symbiotics from a body-led, experiential position. Their work prioritises listening and is responsive to the specificities of context.

SERAFINE1369 is training in Five-Element Acupuncture and is a Doctoral Researcher in the Art Department at Goldsmiths.
