Her work has been performed at more than 40 international film festivals and several dance festivals in Finland and abroad. She has created commissioned works for the Finnish National Ballet, the West Australian Ballet, Tero Saarinen Company and Skånes Dansteater.

In 2016 contemporary dance company Johanna Nuutinen +Collaborators was formed to support the artistic work which Johanna Nuutinen creates with a team of highly visionary sound, light and costume designers as well as dancers and dramaturgs. Johanna is interested in evoking inner journeys which stir up emotions, awaken kinesthetic empathy, create a space for reflection, and question our surroundings in a new light. Some of her latest works are ’ANON - The Act of waiting’ (2018), ’Opia’ (2021), ’Hz ’ (2022) and ’Surge’ (2022).
