The Artist

Joseph Simon (1989, FR) is a dance artist based in Rotterdam (NL). He found his way into dance through Breaking and HipHop culture and graduated ArtEZ School of Contemporary Dance, Arnhem (NL) in 2014. He works internationally as a performer, teacher and choreographer. With the support of Dansateliers Rotterdam, he created several works, including dance films. Questions of identity and bridging between the different dance cultures he moves through, are central elements of his work. Photo by Barbara Dietl
