Demetris Charalambous is an experimental choreographer, performer, and visual artist born and raised in Cyprus. Emerging from an invented cosmology, their work reinterprets the world around them through surreal, mythical, and absurd prisms, opening portals to new kaleidoscopic worlds. Demetris’s movement practice explores the spectrum of a body that oscillates between the primordial and the metaphysical. In doing so, it seeks access to ancient technologies within the body that disrupt contemporary forms of embodiment and resist assimilation. Demetris’s work and collaborations have been presented at Judson Memorial Church, Mabou Mines, Center for Performance Research, Performance Space New York, Friedrichs Pontone Gallery and Sundays on Broadway, as well internationally at the Cyprus Choreography Platform and the Michael Cacoyannis Foundation in Athens, among others. Demetris is a Movement Research Artist in Residence 2026-2027. https://www.
