Kemi Craig

Director

Kemi Craig

Kemi Craig (she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist living and working in the unceded Lekwungen and W̱SÁNEĆ territories also known as Victoria, BC. Within her  practice, she investigates contingencies of identity through movement and visual media. She has performed for stage and in site-specific work as well as created projects for galleries across BC. 

She was an artist in residence with Dance Victoria for the past three years and currently works as the artist in residence for the City of Victoria. Through these residences she experiments with projection mapping, dancers and trigger response technologies to create performances that offer agency and engagement to all participants whether performing on the stage or in the audience.

Both her lived experiences and formal study of images, dance and choreography have informed her artistic creation and expression through playing with performativity, expectations, critical spectatorship and engagement.
