Johanna Nielson is a performer and choreographer living and working in Vienna. Her practice encompasses dance, real-time composition and voice with a focus on phenomena of the sensual and sensitive. Johanna Nielson creates fluid performative formats and spaces in which different disciplines collide and the relationship between audience and performer is challenged. In collaboration with Agnes Schneidewind, she is working on a series of performative experiments that deal post-esoterically with mechanisms of translation (Rumpuls, performance series AH I SEE). She researches the interaction of (experimental) music and dance with the artists Marina Poleukhina, Magdalena Chowaniec, Stefan Voglsinger, Jakob Schauer and Patric Redl. She has performed with Sara Lanner, Inge Kaindlsdorfer/lux flux, Theresa Luise Gindlstrasser, Claire Lefèvre, Florentina Holzinger, Evandro Pedroni, Arne Mannott, Alexander Chernyshkov/Error Theatre and Oleg Soulimenko, among others. In 2017 she received the danceWEB scholarship at ImPulsTanz.
