Makisig Akin
I am a queer, transgender Filipino choreographer. I was raised in the Philippines and am currently based in Berlin. My work focuses on the recognition of intersectional identities, reconnecting with my ancestry, and decentralizing Western ideologies in dance making. I co-founded The Love Makers Company, a project-based dance company, with Anya Cloud. I am also a co-founder with Nara Virgens of the Emerging Change Tanzfestival, a dance festival featuring and curating QTBIPoC artists and their collaborators. www.makisigakin.com
