Tatjana Mahlke is a dance graduate whose interests span multiple urban dance styles. In 2019, she performed as a finalist in the competition “Das beste deutsche Tanzsolo” in Leipzig and in 2020, together with the collective Zookunft.Project, she initiated an international exchange that seeks to confront urban dance with other disciplines, such as the fine arts, sound and light design, illustration and biology. She is a member of the Swiss dance group Merge Dance Collective.
