Grace Euna Kim is a transdisciplinary artist, choreographer, critical researcher, and pedagogue. Her practice investigates ideology and the politics of perception in relation to desire and power, particularly in contexts of solidarity, resistance and conflict.

She conceives site-specific immersive performances and interventions across various contexts and scales, including public spaces, galleries/museums, and theaters, as well as in experimental education- and research-oriented formats. Since 2019, she has developed her long-term research framework“Acid Bodies”, a synthesis of choreographic and phenomenological research on symbolic violence, which informs the artistic, theoretical, and pedagogical outputs of her work.

With a background in visual aesthetics, energy bodywork, psychoanalytic and critical theory, Euna thus develops 360-degree somatic, affective, sensory and perceptual immersive approaches that she describes as “acid choreography”, which challenge the encounter to bring tangibility to psycho-political drives/dimensions of being and movement.


Note on the Documentation:
During her performances cameras are generally prohibited, with a few exceptions depending on the site/public context. The experience is documented when/however possible with hidden/remote cameras. Therefore the photo/video content and quality are limited, since the priority is to protect the intimacy of the viewer’s immersive experience as much as possible. Written testimonials from audience/participants are gathered whenever possible and are essential documents of the work.

Due to the sensitive nature of the work's exploration of audience encounter, public documents are kept very limited.
