Elvan Tekin (Izmir, 1994) is a dancer, performer, choreographer and community organizer based in Berlin. Her artistic interests deal with the entanglement and fluidity of one’s body, language, identity, and their (trans)formations and how these interact and shape the understanding of self and other. In 2023, her solo performance to be a fish in a raki bottle was presented at Tanztage Festival in Sophiensaele, Berlin. Moreover, Elvan is the co-curator and organizer of the curatorial project emergent spaces that is centralizing queer and trans feminist perspectives in the diaspora. She has completed her master’s degree in Choreography at HZT, Berlin.
