Collective Current - Frederik Kaijser

Frederik Kaijser - Kunsthumaniora Brugge

For this performance, the dance department of Kunsthumaniora Brugge invited guest choreographer Frederik Kaijser to work with all 2nd and 3rd grade students. For a week, all students were immersed in Frederik’s world of movement, in which he searched for ways to find depth through shared images, ideas, sensations and textures in the body. His work reflects a search for extremes in many ways, finding freedom and playing with possibilities to create movement that is rich and layered

Frederik Kaijser (he/him), born in Terneuzen (NL), graduated from Codarts in Rotterdam in 2017 after an internship with Scapino Ballet Rotterdam. As a freelance dancer, he works with both established and emerging choreographers in Europe, including Arno Schuitemaker, Joshua Monten and Antonin Comestaz.

He regularly collaborates with visual artists and musicians, focusing on his interdisciplinary approach.
