TaikaBox - Tanja Råman and John Collingswood
TaikaBox was born in 2010 in Cardiff from the long-lasting collaboration between choreographer and dancer Tanja Råman and video artist John Collingswood, working to create new ways of experiencing dance. In 2015, they moved to Oulu, Northern Finland. Their remote location and frequent need to travel abroad led them to experiment with strategies and technology for creating work with a minimal carbon footprint. TaikaBox's work aims to transition towards more sustainable touring approaches that actively support artists, venues and audiences in smaller towns and rural areas by bringing digitalisation and technology closer to performing arts, all while reducing the environmental impact.
