Lena Josefsson & Kompani Raande-Vo

From her childhood in former Zaire, Josefsson possesses an incomparable sense of rhythm and music. She crosses borders between different art forms, focusing on the meetings created between artists of different backgrounds. Since the very beginning, the company has attracted attention for its wide range of innovative performances. Their pieces have been adored by the public and praised by the media, and Lena Josefsson has with her Raande-Vo received a variety of awards and distinctions for her artistic work.

– We want our productions to mirror questions that reflect upon our current society, which through poetry we can open up to reflection, confrontation, and dialogue, says Lena Josefsson.

“Lena Josefsson’s work is a grand epic drama of humankind’s fragile existence, created with a moral pathos seldom seen on a dance stage. The concept is simply brilliant: Look at humankind! One sees the defenceless and lonely, but also the fantastic and beautiful. You. I.” Dagens Nyheter
