SIDONIE
CAREY-GREEN
Dr Sidonie Carey-Green is a UK-based dance filmmaker and practitioner-researcher whose work explores the intersection of movement, land, and technology. Her work investigates connections between ideas of locality and choreographic mapping, and she predominantly works as a choreographer in site specific live performance and film. She has a PhD from Royal Holloway University of London and currently works across universities in the UK including the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. She is the author of Surveillance Technologies in Performance and Migration (Methuen Drama, 2026) and her research interests centre around bodies, borders and data. She is founder and co-director of Common Grounding, an arts organisation based in East Kent which supports and creates work that is motivated by the richness and urgency our borderlands surroundings can bring to moving, dancing and community-making practices of all kinds.
Her credits include Channel 4’s Random Acts, Malta’s European Capital of Culture, Brighton Screen Dance Festival, Les Danses Quatiers Canada, Preheat Festival Austin Texas, and official selections in festivals globally.
