Christopher Reyes is a British-born Filipino hip-hop dance theatre artist, choreographer, and artistic curator – and one of the participants of 2022 Rosetta Arts’ Artist Accelerator scheme. Born and raised in East London during the late 80s, Chris has delivered a series of powerful emotive dance works (Sean, KUYA and The people’s choice award, CARAVAN) that challenge his identity and reflect his life experiences growing up in the city. Inspired by his upbringing in hip-hop culture and ongoing discovery of his Filipino roots, Chris seeks to bridge the cultural gap and reconnect modern Filipinos with their roots by educating the public on the history and presence of his race and culture within the UK.
