Dasha Che (they/them) and Suvi Tuominen (she/her) are a performance artist duo currently based in Helsinki, Finland. Both Che and Tuominen have established practices in the field of dance and performance art. Che is also a queer activist, and Tuominen a theoretical archaeologist. In their collaboration, Che and Tuominen seek ways to destabilise conceptual and aesthetic processes through practices, such as dis/oriented movement, improvised dialogues, free-writing, time-wasting and failing to do performances. Che and Tuominen also work with philosophical, scientific and fictional texts through which they formulate a messy operational vocabulary to their artistic projects.
