Jody Kuehner
Eighteen years ago I landed in Seattle where I fell in love with its rowdy, postmodern dance culture. I devoured everything experimental, improvisational, and durational. I fell in love with my own queerness. My previous works confronted the celebration of patriarchy. My newest projects make space for matriarchal power through its themes, process, and presentation. I am a 2020 NEFA’s National Dance Project finalist, 2017 Artist Trust Fellowship recipient, 2017 Henry Art Gallery AIR, 2016 NEFA’s National Dance Project awardee, and 2015 Stranger Genius Award winner. My work has been featured in ARTnews, i-D Magazine, and NBC 12 must-see LGBTQ+ art shows around the world.
