Amber Dollin

Amber Dollin is an independent Dance Artist based in Glasgow, Scotland. She trained at
Dance Studio Scotland, Glasgow to HND level before securing her First Class BA (hons) degree at The Space, Dundee. She went on to fulfill an internship with Scottish Dance Theatre funded by The Bridge Awards where she successfully facilitated explorations of shared curiosity and developed participants' relationships by means of 'Dandelions' - a series of creative, intergenerational workshops. Since then Amber has moved back to Glasgow and built a portfolio of regular teaching work. She was awarded a place on the Recent Graduate Programme 2019 - 20 with Barrowland Ballet and The Work Room. She has since adapted her work to online platforms and has been using this time to investigate and inform her own practice.

“The creative aspects of dance spark my interest in respect of both freedom and opportunity. I enjoy that I can feel free and go to a place of serenity while my body takes over and creates it’s own conversation. There are no right answers in this idea of dance which is liberating. In my creative practice I focus my interest in juxtaposing ideas which concern movement and structure and find great enjoyment in the challenges involved with allowing others to see and perform what I envisage. I hope to create pieces which span many subjects and all relate in provoking thought and eliciting conversation in the audience.”
