JACQUELINE AYLWARD

I am a dance artist from Naarm (Melbourne) Australia who is currently based in Helsinki, Finland. My artistic practice is preoccupied with dance and dancing as a space of excessive nonsense, material playfulness and fiction; for both the performer and their audiences. My approach is often interdisciplinary and intuitive. It is supported and sustained through friendship, love and perseverance. 

 

Currently, I make solo work, group peices and work as a dancer on other people's projects. I am a core member of Bunch of Scrumps (an experimental dance and music collective based across Finland, Serbia, Slovenia and Australia) and a member of Moss and Flesh (a punk band made up of dancers who don't know how to play their instruments). Sometimes I also work as a teacher of dance and yoga.
