Julia Flux

 lives and works in Berlin and Andalusia Spain

Flux works at the intersection of dance, somatic practices, feminist speculation, land art, and site-specific performance. Rooted in dance her work explores the body as a sensual, sensing field in continuous exchange with land, matter, and unseen forces.

Flux’s practice is driven by a long-term inquiry into the invisible, the in-between, and the more-than-human—those subtle spaces where perception, myth, ecology, and matter meet. Influenced by Butoh’s understanding of ma (the interval, the charged void), she works within states of co-sensing, listening, and attunement, often engaging with stones, minerals, animals, solar forces, and landscapes as active collaborators from which she creates symbolic movement material. She developed methodologies that combine embodied research, ecological listening, speculative fiction -such as “TALKING WITH STONES” and “SENSUAL ANIMALS WITH SPIRITUAL FLESH” —a way of working that honors material agency, stimulates ecological imagination and a earthbound sensing. Her choreographic style is hugely impacted by the quest for symbolic movement, the body and dance as infinite vocabulary and tool of developing languages.

Her practice is grounded in a foundational dance education in jazz and ballet, later expanded through contemporary and modern dance and intensive professional training with the Berlin Dance Institute BDI, where she got trained in the techniques of Martha Graham, Horton and Axis Syllabus.

going through various trainings in contemporary Dance Flux is deeply inspired by Pina Bausch’s legacy and integrates a symbolic movement interpretation with a strong emphasize on hand arm shape variations, her focus lies on a strong, authtentic energertic and emotional presence, strongly influenced her research on sign language. She translates into scores, images, and compositional structures that form visual poems

she trained and found inspiration and guidance for her work within intense workshops at B12 Berlin with Pau Aran Gimeno, at TIC TAC CENTER under David Zambrano and Martha Coronado, within Tanzfabrik and Berlin Dance Institute.

Her partial deafness on the right side has profoundly shaped her sensory orientation, sharpening her attention to altered states of perception, silence, and non-verbal forms of communication—elements that remain central to her artistic language.

she also trained for over 5 years within the realm of Schwelle 7 Berlin exploring shibari and various forms of rope-play-performance based bodyworks, deeply influenced by mentors like Felix Ruckert and Dasniya Sommer, dedicated to explore non-verbal expressions and the power of body language.

Solar Futures is a research into how we might re-imagine our relationship to the Sun beyond its dominant role as a source of energy and resource. I approach the Sun simultaneously as ancient cosmology, planetary force, material condition and speculative future: a force that has shaped bodies, ecosystems, migration, cultures and ways of knowing long before the human. Through choreography, ritual, somatic practice, light, sound and ecological research, I explore solar embodiment and post-human languages of sensing — asking what other forms of time, relation and collective life might become possible when we understand the body as porous, solar and entangled with the Earth.

y practice is rooted in long-term, transdisciplinary research across ecology, dance, somatics, environmental philosophy and collective practice. Through projects such as Cadavre Exquis, LIOS Labs / School of Ecological Imagination and Current Futures, I develop situations in which knowledge is produced through participation, embodied experience, ecological observation, listening and exchange. Rather than separating artistic research from community engagement, I understand the collective as a site of knowledge production — where different bodies, species, places and forms of expertise meet. Community is not the audience of the artwork; community is part of its material, method and ecology.
