Martin Hansen

Martin works alone and with friends, colleagues and comrades. Their work often conceptualises the body as a dynamic and imperfect archive. Through choreographing relations with a diverse range of performative, extant and ephemeral materials they critically explore memory and time through figures like ghosts, haunting, suffering and monsters.

Since 2015, Martin’s solos and group works have been presented internationally at venues such as Tanzfabrik, Sophiensaele, Radialsystem and Bärenzwinger (Berlin), PACT Zollverein (Essen), Rencontre Chorégraphique Internationales De Seine Saint Denis (Paris), Charleroi Danse and KANAL Centre Pompidou (Brussels), Hong Kong Arts Festival (Hong Kong), Dance Massive, Dancehouse, Frame Biennial (Melbourne), Aerowaves (Aarhus), and Carriageworks (Sydney).

Martin has performed internationally for Sheena McGandles, Sergui Matis, Tino Sehgal, Ligia Lewis, Christoph Winkler and Laurie Young; and in Australia for Sarah Aiken, Chunky Move and Not Yet It’s Difficult.
