Nuno Santos

Metallic Bodies - Katie Lusby

ABOUT WORK

Nuno's work is born out of the love for the medium of dance as well as photography which he has been combining and exploring for several years. Alongside his commissioned work for various choreographers and companies, he has started to develop his own projects of abstract dance photography. Some of it may classify as portrait work but most of it is concerned with the human form and its relation to object, time and space.

CAREER

Nuno is a dance photographer based in London, where has worked for and collaborated with some of the best contemporary dance artists, choreographers and companies in the UK (incl. Protein Dance, Maresa von Stockert, Stan Won’t Dance, Shobana Jeyasingh and Henri Oguike). He has been commissioned by London Contemporary Dance School to document their work over several years, where he also exhibited his photography at The Place. Nuno’s original work and conceptual photography is highly collaborative in that he works closely with dance artists, stylists and designers to explore notions of movement, displacement, time and space.
