Laima is a choreographer and multi-media artist from Latvia. Many of Laima´s works are related to exploring and creating spaces, be it poetic or political, social or intimate. 

Laima explores how our bodies interact with society and hidden social rules. She’s interested in understanding how our bodies hold things that we keep private, and how it affects how we present ourselves to the world. She looks at gaps in communication and in what complex ways perception works, as well as how our surroundings affect us.

Laima creates spaces where we can try to explore how we sense our bodies in a deeper way. She’s always asking questions about who we are as people, the emotions we feel in different places, and how our world is filled with all sorts of experiences, from sounds and lights to strong emotions like hope and violence.
