Hilde Elbers
Hilde Elbers has appeared as a dancer in the work of T.r.a.s.h., Conny Janssen, Itzik Galili and Constanza Macras, among others. Since 2008, she has also been creating and dancing her own work, which shows a fascination for the workings of the human psyche. Whether it is about how people can use their full potential or how we connect with ourselves and the other, Hilde Elbers makes it a matter of the body. With her openness and an intensely physical approach, she fillets human thoughts and behaviour and lovingly confronts her audience with perspectives and (im)possibilities.
From 2014 to 2019, Hilde will work under the wings of DansBrabant. Her orientation chimes with the theatrical angle that DansBrabant encourages while her building blocks do not necessarily reflect that. This is interesting. DansBrabant encourages her to focus on exploring her themes, forms of work and expression, coming up with concepts and further developing dance idioms appropriate to her ideas.
