SIRIOL JOYNER is an artist working within the field of dance and choreography.
She is obsessed with language: its relationship to dance and dancing and the material and political implications of this connection.
She creates movement, text, and object works focusing on notions of mutation, translation, and code-switching. Her interests are informed by her Welsh identity, her mother tongue Cymraeg and extend to the indigenous languages of Sweden and Sápmi where she currently lives. Her work has been presented at PSi, Aomori Japan; Museum of Contemporary Art, Puerto Rico; Movement Research NYC and in 2021 her solo piece ‘Listening to-’ was presented by Cullberg, the leading repertoire company for contemporary dance in Sweden.
On this, her first performance in Aotearoa, she will collaborate with local musicians in creating a rich and unique meeting of sound, music, and movement.
