Jessica Huber
Accomplice
Jessica's artistic work glides back and forth between different performance worlds: while her early projects were primarily choreographic in nature, her more recent productions vary in terms of form and expression. What the choreographer's works have in common, however, is the search for a practice and aesthetic of sharing and exchange and the lived desire for collaboration. Accordingly, Jessica has made collaborations with other artists her primary working method. Formats such as walks, residencies and workshops are an essential part of her creative process.
Jessica trained in contemporary dance, choreography and dance & theatre studies at the Laban Centre/City University London. Together with Karin Arnold, she is a founding member of the performance collective mercimax.
She has been part of the Tanzhaus dramaturgy pool on a mandate basis since 2020. In 2025 she would like to merge her dramaturgical and artistic activities within the house more closely and also share insights and practices from her research series rituals of tenderness.
