Tangram

Tangram is an artist collective specialising in multidisciplinary and cross-cultural productions. They are Associate Artists with the London Symphony Orchestra at LSO St Luke’s, where they have been praised for their “highly imaginative presentations” (I CARE IF YOU LISTEN), “deep-rooted originality” (Morning Star), “powerfully theatrical performance” (TEMPO), and “intoxicating overall mood of poetry, restraint and elegance” (The Stage).

Tangram’s work builds on a foundation of contemporary classical music, drawing out its capacity for storytelling by interweaving design, movement, text, film, visual installation and performance art. Nominated for the Royal Philharmonic Society’s Young Artist Award 2023 for being “truly innovative”, Tangram projects have ranged from collaborations with Chinese sword dance and Chinese opera masters, programmes of music made for stones, ice blocks and plastic bags, and performances with live action painting and audience participation.

Tangram’s ethos is marked by openness and risk-taking. Through their projects, they actively invite curiosity and dialogue across cultures, disciplines and communities.
