ARID is an arts company by long-time collaborators Adelina Larsson Mendoza and Anthony Coxeter.

​​​​

Among Larsson Mendoza and Coxeter's collaborations is a series of five works over ten years (No Place, 2013; In the Rite I, 2016; In the Rite II: Solo, 2019; In the Rite III, 2020; In the Rite IV, 2024). These have been performed in segments at the State Theatre Centre of Western Australia as a part of Laura Boynes's 'WW', the recipient of an Australian Dance Award in 2019, and have been premiered at The Watermill Center's '100 Years of Experimentation' anniversary in Long Island, New York, in a 2024 co-production with Robert Wilson.

​

In addition, the duo have worked extensively across Australia in dialogue with other artists such as Rosalind Crisp, Andrew Morrish, Margie Medlin, Katie West, Laura Boynes, Maitland Schnaars, and have participated in a number of dancemaking residencies in Sweden and the US. 

​

As educators, they have combined pedagogy, studio praxis and artistic research, bringing students and participants into processes that link understandings of technique, performance-making and post-dramatic contexts. Such processes have been run at Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts for the Contemporary Dance stream and the Bachelor of Performing Arts Honours program, Strut Dance, and Critical Path Choreographic Center in Sydney.
