We see dance as a basic human need. It is constantly developing and evolving in parallel to the evolution of society and the diversity of dance styles have a direct correlation to the diversity of people and society. We want to break down the barriers between the different dance forms, let them interact with each other and bring them all together in one stage.
A place to create – a place to perform – a place to connect:
PLATFORM 14 is a yearly dance event provided by artists to promote and support fellow up-and-coming dance artists and choreographers. The Platform creates a space where the artists can get to know each other’s movement languages and unique perceptions on dance, exposing them to facilities to connect and network, allowing possible future collaborations and creating strong bonds after a shared experience of performing and moving together in a week of dance and art. Together with artists from different backgrounds and orientations, we hope to create a stimulating evening full of opportunities to strike up conversations, bond through the artists’ works, and share our passion for the art of dance with the audience.
