Sam Kim is an experimental choreographer, dancer and teacher who has been making and performing in dances for over two decades. She was born of Korean immigrants, and currently lives and works in Brooklyn. Sam's felt and direct experience of being an immigrant has uniquely honed her artistic lens and approach; it’s manifested in her work as an elegantly subversive form of agitation against traditional dance forms. Her body of work resolutely pushes into the margins of dance, celebrating the edges, while courting the danger inherent in rejecting dance’s legacies––in other words, she approaches her choreographic practice as an artistic game of brinkmanship.
