ABOUT

Grace Xiu Mei 益秀美 is a multi-disciplinary artist specializing in dance and performance. QUEER. ASIAN DIASPORA. ADOPTEE. These roots have been and are actively cultivated to expand upon their own artist practice, experience and philosophy. They owe much to previous teachers and artists including Juel D. Lane, Selene Carter, Erik Abbott-Main and Stafford C. Berry Jr.

 

Xiu Mei plays with words, visual art mediums and movement to process, but also fantasize of worlds to be. They hope to offer glimpses of these worlds and help others cultivate their own, for safekeeping or sharing. Community is a tenant of her practice that is traced to her past teachers’ influences.
