Bio

Femke Gyselinck (1983, Belgium) is a dancer and choreographer. After completing her studies at P.A.R.T.S. in 2006, she worked as a freelance dancer with Eleanor Bauer, Andros Zins-Browne and Esther Venrooy, among others. She worked for nine years as artistic assistant to Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker / Rosas and is part of the faculty of P.A.R.T.S.

In her own work, Femke searches for a dance language closely intertwined with music, combining bold performativity with a fine form of expressivity. Her work includes Flamer (2018), Lachrimae or Seven Tears (2018), L'Echo Du Danube (2018), Pigmalion (2019), ERATO (2019), Moving Ballads (2020), Gymnastics of the Mind (2020), Letters 2 Dance (2022), Change of Plans (2023) with Platform-K, and 324 mountains between us with Georgian musician Anushka Chkheidze.

Femke Gyselinck is one of the four artistic directors of dance organisation GRIP, together with choreographers Jan Martens, Cherish Menzo and Steven Michel.
