Nina Davies 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 shown at ArtSpace, Sydney; Future Gallery, Berlin; Seventeen, London; and Matt’s Gallery, London. Recent performances include Tate Britain; Somerset House; and The Photographers’ Gallery. In 2021 she co-founded Future Artefacts FM with artist Niamh Schmidtke, later joined by co-host Rebecca Edwards. Together they showcase artists working with both sound and fiction, culminating in a programme of radio shows, workshops, and live events.
