Emma Martin started out a ballet dancer. She creates multidisciplinary work that has spilled into film, installation, opera and theatre. Her work is sweaty, messy, music-heavy and human, exploring the friction between rawness and delicacy, high art and popular culture, past and future, order and chaos, homage and intent.

“I try to make dances and pieces to be felt- movement and ideas that inspire emotion and open up a porous exchange between performers and audience, honouring the invisible cellular energetic connective tissue the joins us, all of us pouring out reaching for that thing beyond our grasp, sharing the same air, dreaming into new realities together.”

She graduated from the John Cranko School, in Stuttgart, and has a BA in Russian and Drama & Theatre Studies from Trinity College Dublin. As a choreographer she made her first show in 2010, and now produces work through her company United Fall since 2018. Her previous performance works include King/ Shrine, Night Dances, Birdboy, Orfeo ed Euridice, Girl Song, Dancehall, Tundra. Her work has been presented nationally and internationally, touring throughout Europe and the UK.

Emma is an associate artist at Visual Centre for Contemporary Art and Dance Ireland and an Aerowaves 2023 selected Artist.
United Fall is based in County Carlow and is funded by the Arts Council of Ireland, with international touring generously supported by Culture Ireland
