Shelmith Øseth is a dancer based in Bergen and Oslo. Her movements are characterized by experience from contemporary dance, classical ballet, and various traditional African dance techniques such as "indlamu" and "pantsula" from South Africa. She got her education at the dance line in Langhaugen high school and later at Skolan för Samtidsdans in Sweden. Over the last few years she have worked on several theater and dance projects at, among others, Den Nationale Scene in Bergen, Nordic Black Theater in Oslo, Bergen Kunsthall, and now most recently with Semper Eadem at Det The Norwegian Theatre. Øseth has operated both independently and as part of companies such as Theater ZeBU and Nordic Beasts in Denmark, aswell as Wiels in Brussels. The focus on social and political aspects with the pure expression of dance is what matters. And she is interested in words in the correlation. Her interests in vocabulary in correlation with movement are derived and inspired from her love and experience in physical theatre and works by choreographers such as Alan Lucien Øyen and Crystal Pite.
