Tamara Alegre works with dance and choreography. Born in Gran Canaria, she/they studied European Business and Psychology and worked as an underground music curator, dj and tour manager until 2016. In 2018, she obtained an MA in Choreography at DOCH, Stockholm and premiered FIEBRE, co-signed since 2019, with Lydia Ö Diakité, Marie Ursin, Nunu Flashdem and Célia Lutangu. The work has been presented in several venues in Europe and won the Young Choreographer's Award in 2021. Their research revolves around sensual embodiments, fictions on sexuality/sexual organs and liminal physical states as choreographic tools. Her works are embodied and charged with resistance, intensity and the pleasure of dancing together.

Nunu Flashdem is a dancer and plus-size model based in London since 2021. Flashdem has a background in various circus disciplines and currently works as a professional Dancehall and Twerk dancer and teacher. She performs at different events and concerts, amongst other Kranium, Charly Black and Cali P, and shoots music videos with other artists around Europe. Recently Flashdem was in videos with Palms, Wrstrn, Avelino, Not3s and Yungen, and modeled for Named Collective. In 2018, she created Flashdem Entertainment.

MARGA ALFEIRÃO uses media to create safe spaces for exploring intimacy and sexuality through dance and performance. Heavily influenced by dance genres and sonic textures from the African diaspora, diffused through the social fabric of Lisbon, Marga seeks active assertions of femininity by creating space for lesbian sensualities. In 2022, she premiered Wet Eyez, a piece about emotional bodies and fantasy, with Camila Malenchini. In 2023, their duet Lounge premiered at Tanztage Berlin.

Elie Autin is a model, dancer, and artist. Autin studied contemporary dance at the Manufacture HES-SO in Lausanne. Directly after obtaining her diploma, Autin worked on various artistic creations and productions within theatre, dance and performance as a performer, but also as creator and co-creator. Autin has worked with Tamara Alegre, Marvin M’Toumo, Natasza Gerlach, Caner Teker, Juliette Uzor, Nagi Gianni, Alexandre Doublet among others. Recently she exhibited her first sculpture installation at a group exhibition at La Rada in Locarno, Switzerland and is now starting to develop artistic work in new directions.

Marie Ursin works with dance, choreography, curation and organizing, always based on collaborative processes and hybrid formats. She studied dance and performance at Stockholm University of the Arts (DOCH). Since 2013 she has been the artistic director of the annual experimental residency project Scene:Bluss in collaboration with Alexandra Tveit.
