About the Artist

Amber Hongsermeier is a neurodivergent and interdisciplinary movement artist, educator, and dance filmmaker. She received her BA in Dance with a history minor from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, where she was awarded the Porter Award for Creativity in Dance. In 2021, she earned her MFA in Dance from Rutgers University with her thesis focused on finding embodiment by exploring archetypes in astrology and tarot. Also, in 2021, she completed her 200-hour yoga teacher training.

Her varied educational and performance background consists of commercial, concert, and vernacular dance forms, which gives a nuanced understanding of aesthetics and the high-brow and low-brow narratives built around these forms. She has performed works by Kayvon Pourazar, Blanca Huertas-Agnew, Jody Sperling, Pavel Zustiak, and Jessica Bostock. Her work for stage and film has been shown in Nebraska, Iowa, Washington, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Japan. Often, her creative research uses frameworks from cultural anthropology, Jungian psychology, religious studies, and somatics to examine Western society, especially concerning the body, spirituality, and movement.
​
Currently, she resides in South Jersey/Philadelphia, where she works as a full-time dance professional
