Dages Juvelier Keates
Dages Juvelier Keates (she/they) is an artist working with and through the materiality of their body as a somatic space for holding paradox. Deeply influenced by psychoanalysis, they carry out a queer feminist study of the subjective body as an accumulation of unanswered questions; a carnal, poetic, ephemeral archive entangled within and between “others.” Their ongoing praxis as a performer, choreographer, writer and teacher has garnered international acclaim for the melding of expression and theory. They have recently participated in panels and taught for “Audience Advocates” at University of North Carolina, Ariana Reines’ Invisible College, The Royal Institute of Art (Stockholm, Sweden), Tabakalera International Centre for Contemporary Culture (San Sebastien, Spain), Palais de Tokyo (Paris, France), Parsons/The New School (NYC), New York University (NYC), Colgate University (New York, USA), Newington-Cropsey Foundation (New York, USA), Temple University (Philadelphia, PA). Dages published “Radical Acts of Embodiment,” released with a reading at McNally Jackson in New York City.
