Kelly Keesing in residence
Percolate 2026 artist Kelly Keesing will be in residence for one week in June
Kelly Keesing is an Australian–Irish dance artist based in Ireland, working across choreography and performance. She trained at Tanya Pearson Academy Sydney and Palucca Hochschule für Tanz Dresden, and has performed internationally with companies such as Ballet National de Marseille (LA)Horde, Bern Ballett, Ballett Theater Basel, and as a freelance artist.
She is currently developing a dance theatre work titled ‘Speak to Me’, developed across a series of international and Ireland-based residencies. The work explores the instability of communication, and how sound, repetition, and memory distort perception, shifting how bodies meet and misalign in shared space. Set within a shifting, domestic environment, it examines how memory is held in the body and how it resurfaces over time.
