Kate Nankervis is a dance artist. Her projects take forms of collaboration, artistic research, performance, and exhibition where dance is intertwined with an embodiment of care, integrated lived experiences are centred, and relationships and inspirations with nature are collaborative guides.
Her work hopes to create experiences vital to physical and mental health, community and placemaking through dance. Kate performs in MOSSBELLY choreography by Angela Vitovec at the Toronto Biennale of Art.
Kate is a recipient of the Danceweb Scholarship at ImpulsTanz, Vienna (2019), an OAC’s Chalmers Fellowship in dance curation (2016), a UNESCO Performing Arts Award (2008) and is supported by the Toronto Arts Council, Ontario Arts Council and Canada Council for the Arts on various projects. Kate lives in Tkaranto with roots in South Porcupine, Northern Ontario.
