Choreographer & Performer

My Nilsson is a Swedish, Danish choreographer, dancer and self-producing performing artist. As choreographer her works for theater and gallery spaces are on ecologies: how do we as audiences and performers relate to space, choice and the actions of others?

”Let’s face it. We’re undone by each other. And if we’re not, we’re missing something.” - Judith Butler

She is educated at The Royal Swedish Ballet School and The Danish National School of Performing Arts in Copenhagen. As a freelance artist she works within the field of dance; choreographing, performing and producing.
