REUNINDO–gathering or reuniting in Portuguese–is a cross-cultural collaboration between Mozambican dancer and musician Sumalgy Nuro and Swedish-American dancer Yasmine Lindskog based in real-time composition with dance and live music. Drawing from their roots in the North and the South, they create a dialogue between their cultural and artistic backgrounds through traditional and contemporary approaches as a means to enrich their vocabulary and discover new forms. Embracing site-specific research, landscapes, and community, Reunindo is inspired by daily encounters in new landscapes and across borders. The duo co-creates with the unique landscapes and communities they encounter in order to unearth and weave together stories embedded in place. This project serves as a platform to come together as we return to presence, breath, rhythm, community, and nature in its most raw and visceral sense.

During the project we host morning training sessions and evening dance and music jam sessions open for the local community to participate. The morning training sessions include traditional Mozambican dance led by Sumalgy Nuro and improvisation and floorwork led by Yasmine Lindskog. All sessions are accompanied with live music by Sumalgy Nuro. The evening jam sessions are based in real-time composition with live music and dance.
