Nina Davies

Nina Davies (she/her) is a Canadian-British artist who considers the present moment through observing dance in popular culture and how it is disseminated, circulated, made, and consumed. Previous research projects have included; the recent commodification of the dancing body on digital platforms and rethinking dances of today as traditional dances of the future. Oscillating between the use of fiction and non-fiction, her work helps build new critical frameworks for engaging with dance practices.

Her work has recently been exhibited at The Photographers Gallery, London; Seventeen, London; Matt’s Gallery, London; and Bloomberg New Contemporaries 2023. In 2021 she co-founded Future Artefacts FM with artist Niamh Schmidtke and was awarded an Arts Council Project Grant to produce their 2022 programme and in 2023 they produced a mini series for Het HEM’s online programme The Couch.

Nina Davies is part of Critical Acts – an immersive gathering and a platform for surveying emerging net and digital cultures through performance lectures on Wednesday 9 October.
