Introducing choreographer Eowynn Enquist:

“It’s interesting to realize together how big the choreographic role is; it’s really a many-layered process. There are so many roles a choreographer has; each stage of development requires a different role.”

In Bloom, Eowynn Enquist is presenting her work “How to share weight, when you weigh differently” and is joined in performance by Isak Enquist.

She is a dance maker and performer. Her formal dance training began with Surrey BC's Affinity Dance and continued expanding movement methodologies and inspiration to create new dance works at Simon Fraser University, selected by faculty to receive the 2015 cross-disciplinary scholarship The Amir Algahnand Award In Contemporary Arts.

Studies also included (2019) Marie Chouinard Intensive, and RUBBERBANDance, (2017) Springboard Danse Montréal/Stephen Laks and (2015-2017) Arts Umbrella International Dance Intensives. She has collaborated/interpreted with Wen Wei Wang (Wen Wei Dance), Tiffany Tregarthen, David Raymond/Out Innerspace Dance Theatre, Vanessa Goodman/Action at a Distance, Noam Gagnon/Vision Impure, Jennifer Mascall/ Mascall Dance, Amber Funk Barton/ the response, Paraskevas Terezakis/ Kinesis Dance Somatheatro, Mahaila Patterson O’Brien, Rachel Meyers, Anya Saugstad, and Dance Victoria Emerging Choreographic Lab.

Eowynn is co-founder of Vancouver-based CAMP, which presents audiences with full-length dance-theatre productions - hyper-performative environments as a magnified product of our collaborative interactions. Her close collaboration with Brenna Metzmeier, Isak Enquist, Sarah Formosa, and Ted Littlemore leans into theatrical elements of performance, finding extremes rich with artifice, aesthetic, fantasy, exaggeration, and comedy.
