In the artist's words:

CocoonDance constantly transforms the theater into a space of transformation that challenges the notions of dance and the body. The abstract yet intense productions make each performance an unforgettable journey into a world of ideas and physicality. The collective project CocoonDance around the Swiss choreographer Rafaële Giovanola, winner of the German theater award DER FAUST 2022 and recently the Italian Danza&Danza award as "best choreographer contemporary dance", has become an integral part of the European dance scene. Since its foundation in 2000, the company has toured five continents with around 60 productions and has received several invitations to renowned national and international dance events. Intensive, almost unlimited body research and collective decision-making processes are the basis for the aesthetic density and dramaturgical consistency of the works. Since 2009, CocoonDance has been supported by the state of North Rhine-Westphalia as part of its top and excellence funding.
