GIVE PEACE A CHANCE

Lîla Collective _ Betty Pester (she/her) & Lio Noah Jakob (they/them)
 
Dance | Performance | Connection

Zur Person/über mich:  Lîla Collective, founded by Vienna-based artists Lio Jakob and Betty Pester in 2024, explores the intersections of movement, identity, and connection. Their work draws from contemporary and House Dance while blending diverse influences to expand their movement language.

In 2024, they held residencies at RAW Matters x Brunnenpassage in Vienna and Silk Fluegge in Linz, during which they created works such as Patchworks and Silent Collaborators, presented at Brunnenpassage, Kultursommer Wien, and “Quality Street” at Bears in the Park Studio.

In 2025, they continued their artistic research with a residency at Territori-di-Ricerca, where they developed their new piece In Conversation, which will soon be performed at Off Theater Wien.

This piece is a dialogue, unfolding in and between bodies, boxes and layers. We move between Contemporary and House, navigating the layers of history, culture, style and responsibility – questioning what is pure, what is borrowed and what exists in-between.
