NADI GOGOULOU

Born in 1988, Nadi Gogoulou is a dancer, performer and dancemaker. She studied dance and economics and holds a Master’s in New Performative Practices by the Stockholm University of the Arts. She has been awarded the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Artist Fellowship by ARTWORKS (2021). She has worked with Greek choreographers in dance and site-specific performances and creates projects of her own. In addition, she has directed short films which have been screened in various international film festivals and worked as a choreographer in a number of theatre productions. She also gives classes of improvisation based on a style of movement she is developing herself (“Join the Fun”). Rhythm, pattern, repetition, iteration, musicality, virtuosity, playfulness, game, rules and +1-ness are fundamental key words in Nadi’s artistic practice and work. In her latest works —The cooking-with-Nadi show at Onassis New Choreographer’s Festival 8 and B.A.W.L. at Hallen/CCap project space in Stockholm— she has been engaging with the idea of developing a hand-making” methodology, and investigating the thought of methodology being a tool. These explorations are indicative of the keen interest she maintains in methodical questions and of her desire to discover methods that can generate, maintain, inspect and transform. To set formulas for opening up a space which will be hospitable to different perceptions.
