Abstract

This essay navigates the dance history and aesthetics of New York–based Filipina-American dance artist Kristin Jackson, who bravely produced herself as an independent dance-maker. It highlights the independent and alternative dance practice of Jackson in the context of her multicultural identity and Filipino diaspora in America. As Jackson straddles both the Philippines and America, we witness in this narrative several issues mobilized around her dance and dance-making.
