Jennifer Lin | Dance

  • M

    MA

Institution/Business Type: Artist / Creative (Individual)

Jennifer Lin identifies as a bi-racial American Korean and Massachusetts based dancer, choreographer, and teaching artist. With a concentration in classical ballet and American modern dance, she holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Boston Conservatory and later as a mid-career artist went on to earn a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Hawai`i at Manoa where she focused on the study and research of traditional Korean dance and ethnology. Lin intersects dance, culture, and identity to explore interstitial spaces between tradition and modernity, form and expression, and theory and practice. A formalist and abstract expressionist, movement itself, its properties and elements greatly inspires the choreographic process. Lin pursues beauty in dance-making and endeavors to share dance experiences that are aesthetic, kinesthetic, intellectual and visceral.
