The dance ensemble Work was formed in connection with a project of the same name in 2013. With choreography by Alexander Gottfarb and music by and with Jonas Jonasson, a dance performance was created that was based on movements created as a result of work.

An aesthetic based on functionality and problem solving was the basis for dance with political questions: how is the bodily expression of work valued? What is functionality?

Work has since participated in several contexts, performed and collaborated with choreographers such as Charlotte Darbyshire and Wagner Moreira. The ensemble is part of the research project Crossing Motion where they have worked inter-artistically with musicians from the Västerås Sinfonietta and Elefantöra, among others.

Today Work consists of dancers Karin Delén, Destiny af Kléen, Jilda Hallin and Christina Ohlsson.
