Csilla Nagy is a dance artist, choreographer and dance teacher, who studied at the Hungarian Dance Academy and CODARTS Academy in Rotterdam.She has been working with the Artus-Goda Gábor Company since 2008 and has been realizing her own artistic projects with Cipolla Collective since 2012.

„As an artist, from the beginning I was interested in abstracting and universalising the personal stories of the individual; and in incorporating the personal experiences of the partners in the collaborative production. In the layers of our personality, like the skin of an onion, there are parts that are more likeable and parts that are harder to accept, but it is the combination of these that makes up our being. The aim is to reconcile these disparate parts, to embrace vulnerability, to accept frailty and to explore how to transcend it. Irony is important to me, and more importantly, humour: taking ourselves only as seriously as is absolutely necessary.”
