Simon Ellis
Simon Ellis is an artist working with practices of choreography, filmmaking and dance. He was born in the Wairarapa in Aotearoa New Zealand, but now lives in Coventry and works at the Centre for Dance Research (C-DaRE). He grew up in a family where politicized conversations about equality, consumerism and even technology were common. These conversations have shaped his values as an artist and underpin much of what his practice is about, and how it is conducted. He also thinks about the ways humans might value things that are not easily commodified, and likes to imagine a world filled with people who are sensitive to their own bodies and the bodies of others.
