Stéphanie Janaina

Dancer and choreographer

By collaborating with Indian female contemporary dancers and choreographers, as well as children, I wish to create a vibrant laboratory for artistic exchange and creation, dedicated to exploring the expressions of anger.

Stéphanie Janaina is a Franco-Mexican dancer and choreographer who studied dance, visual arts, cinema and gender studies. Her research revolves around the exploration of fragility in its various forms, questioning and redefining the pejorative feminisation of this concept. She is a member of the group ¡miércoles! with Chilean musician Nicolás Jaar. She also works with the Collectif V.I.D.D.A. to create the trilogy Des pas si présent, a project that attempts to answer the question "What were our first sounds?", inspired by the blackout phenomenon and the Mixtec language Tnu'u Dau. Since 2021, she has been contributing as a curator to Yutindudi, an art space located in the Mixteca Alta region of Oaxaca, Mexico. More recently, as part of her ongoing projects, she is exploring the various manifestations of anger.
