About
Working across theatres, museums, and public spaces, Mirko Guido situates dance within a physical and conceptual inquiry on the body and its dialogue with space and materiality, becoming a site where multiple processes converge and shape one another. Rooted in an interdisciplinary approach, his projects unfold as ongoing negotiations of boundaries, where the co-agency of materials and the seen and unseen forces circulating between them create shifting temporal and architectural structures. Through this embodied-material interplay, audiences encounter a space where body, matter, movement, and environment operate as mutually shaping forces.
As dancer, he worked in several dance companies, including the Cullberg Ballet, and with a great variety of choreographers, whom have provided him with a wide range of embodied perspectives on dance; from Mats Ek, Crystal Pite, Johan Inger to Deborah Hay, Benoît Lachambre, Cristina Caprioli and Tilman O’Donnel, passing by Paul Lighgoot & Sol Leon, Itzik Galili, Alexander Ekman, Rafael Bonachela, Jo Strømgren, Stephan Thoss, Marguerite Donlon, among many others.
As independent choreographer, Mirko has toured productions internationally, including Athens dance festival (Greece), Festival La Becquée (France), Festival MAP/P E-motional (Portugal), Teatri di vita (Italy), Dance Station (Serbia), Weld and Dansens Hus (Sweden), Bora Bora and ARoS Art Museum (Denmark), SPEL - The State Gallery of Contemporary Art, Nicosia (Cyprus), PuSh Festival, Vancounver (Canada), among many others. His artistic processes have been supported by major choreographic centres such as Summer Studios Rosas, Work Space Brussels; Uferstudios Berlin; PACT Zollverein; MDT Stockholm to mention but a few.
Mirko holds a master’s degree in New Performative Practices from DOCH / Stockholm University of the Arts. He’s currently based in Aarhus, Denmark, and is an associated artist at Bora Bora – Dance and Visual Theater.
