Trained in dance, philosophy, and literary criticism, artist and choreographer Isabel Lewis (born 1981 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic) creates works that resist classification, affirming pleasure, connection, and permeability. Lewis employs an expanded sense of the choreographic; she generates affective bodily experiences that address all of the senses in her inherently collaborative practice. Her terminology for many of her works is occasions: immersive social situations in which the dramaturgy of the moment is composed in real time. Her works have been presented internationally in biennials and solo exhibitions as well as in music, theater, and dance festivals. She is a co-founder of »Bodysnatch«, a diverse community of dancers and DJs that gathered monthly between 2011-2020 to throw down on Tuesdays at Kottbusser Tor’s Monarch. Lewis is a professor at the Fine Art Academy Leipzig, leading the Class for Performative Arts since 2021.
