Ashley Ho & Domenik Naue

Biography

Ashley Ho & Domenik Naue are a collection of limbs and hearts. They create transmedial performative encounters, playing across dance, poetry, music, and scenographic experiments. They believe in performance as a social practice – a political, intimate process of transforming and being transformed. More than a consistent focus on specific thematics, their works propose a way being with the world, that confronts harshness through vulnerability and playfulness.

The collaboration between Ashley and Domenik has been nurtured by friendship, as well as support from institutions such as Dansateliers, workspacebrussels, Over het IJ, De Nieuwe Oost, CAMPO, and Dance Nucleus. Their work has been presented in festivals such as Moving Futures, FAT Leiden, Dansand, Offspring (SPRING Utrecht), and con·tact Contemporary Dance Festival.

They graduated from the Dancer/Maker Bachelor’s programme at ArtEZ University of the Arts in 2022, and are currently working between the Netherlands, Belgium, and Singapore.
