Ellen Söderhult is a dancer and choreographer based in Stockholm. Her choreographic works have often taken on the collective as protagonist (Rudy, Shane et al, How to do things with Romance: a prologue, DUNKA DUNKA), but also explored monstrous emotions and textures in sweet-bitter love (GROV) and the ghostly in the relationship between dancer and dance (Spökdanser, Blessika). With a background in choral singing and sports, she often works with voice, enveloping soundscapes and big leaps. Ellen has worked with choreographers such as Iki Gonzalez Magnusson, Sorour Darabi, Anna Källblad, Nikima Jagudajev, Sindri Runudde, Nadja Hjorton, Marvil Iglesias and Catarina Zarazua Mujo, and as a musician with composer Hara Alonso. Ellen is educated at Bollnäs Folk High School’s music line and on the bachelor’s programmes in contemporary dance and circus at DOCH / Stockholm University of the Arts.

The person has long brown hair and is wearing short white sporty shorts and a red white and blue sporty jacket with a balletic, pink fake corsette. The floor of the room is wooden and the walls are white. Photo by Tove Dreiman.
