"Nejla Yatkin doesn't disappear for an instant, not within a role and not under the impact of movement. She's a performer inside and outside, from a piercing gaze to expressive shoulder blades and from the coils of her long black hair to her finger tips and toes. As a dancer, she measures on a major scale, thanks to a strong, long body and the amplitude she sustains. Watching her can become hypnotic, even off stage".

Nejla Yatkin's creations - spanning solo dances, commissioned group works, installations, and short experimental films - arise from a sacred inquiry into land, home, place, and memory. Rooted in the language of the body and woven through multilingual imagery, her work seeks to embody the soul of belonging across worlds.
