Ori j. lenkinski
Dancer, Choreographer and Journalist
I am a Tel Aviv-based dancer, choreographer and journalist. My work, be it on stage, the Internet or on paper, is devoted to exploring the connection between words and movement.
As a dancer, I have worked with independent choreographers and companies in the USA, Europe and Israel. My body of work includes The Painting, Portrait #2, The Suit, Help Desk, Birth Preparation Course as well as the dance films Carriage and Expecting. In 2021, I co-directed and designed movement for the play Blueberry by Nataly Zukerman, which won Best Show at the 2022 Akko International Fringe Theater Festival and in which I continue to perform. I served as dramaturg for the production Prisoner of Zion by Lee Perlman and Nadav Bossem, which premiered in the Akko International Fringe Theater Festival 2023 as well as for Rachel Erdos' Karaoke. In 2023, I premiered Meet Me in the Centre, a walking tour of the Suzanne Dellal Centre. In March of 2024, I presented A Dance Piece as part of Machol Shalem Festival and in August 2024, I will unveil Jackie Pink and Black in Tel Aviv Dance.
