Alexander Roberts

Ásrún Magnúsdóttir and Alexander Roberts have been collaborating closely for years, creating innovative dance and performance projects that stretch traditional norms. As a duo, they focus on amplifying underrepresented voices by developing their work in close collaboration with the people whose perspectives are often less heard. Their partnerships take many forms, ranging from co-authorship to choreographer-dramaturg partnerships, as well as artist-curator roles. Together, they have co-created performances with teenagers, residents of a housing block, and even site-specific performances in people’s homes.

Their work has garnered acclaim both in Iceland and internationally, earning awards and nominations in Iceland, as well as invitations to prestigious venues and festivals across Europe.
