Justine A. Chambers

Justine A. Chambers is a dance artist based on the unceded Coast Salish territories of the səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh), kʷikʷəƛ̓əm (Kwikwetlem), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish) and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations, in Vancouver, Canada. Her practice is a collaboration with her Black matrilineal heritage and extends from this continuum and its entanglements with Western contemporary dance and visual arts practices. Her research attends to embodied archives, social choreographies, and choreography and dance as otherwise ways of being in relation. Chambers’ work has been hosted at galleries, festivals and theatres nationally and internationally. She is an Assistant Professor at the School for the Contemporary Arts at Simon Fraser University. Chambers is Max Tyler-Hite’s mother.
