KOMMA with Jade van den Hout

Jade van den Hout (1993) is active as a performer, teacher and start-up maker, alternating between different activities but always returning to dance and with curiosity about interaction and being human. She completed her dance training in 2014 and continued her studies in the Fighting Monkey practice. For the past decade, she has been part of The100Hands, within which she focuses on interactive performances.

She is currently focusing on her research Cracking the Shell of Dance, a search for the origins of the motivation to dance. She strives to create creative environments for new encounters and connections, in which to reflect together with an audience or co-dancers. Communication and sensory bodily experience are central to this.

Jade reacts to the exhibition Dear awkwardness by Ana Navas. The performance is Saturday 6 April at 3.30pm.
