Gin Niemtus - MA Performance

Nearly Eternal Gourmet

I am a UK based artist who focusses on developing an eclectic skillset, finding fulfilment as an actor, vocalist, poet, puppeteer and facilitator. Passionately indulging in a range of interests has encouraged my development of innovative methods, weaving together my array of pursuits. My background in music performance allows me to captivate audiences using my voice. Poetry informs my writing practice, which has grown into a career as a Game Master. Facilitating using TTRPG’s, I engage those who feel non-traditional forms of performance art resonate with them. This undertaking sets me aside, encouraging accessibility in ways previously underexplored. My experience with instillation art informs the creation of puppets, props and sets, using tantalising visuals to capture audiences. I am interested in work that explores philosophical notions such as Catalysis, the Real, and other concepts which allow us to consider how we interact with the world around us and phenomenology of being alive. I relish in the opportunity to physically create, spending countless hours in workshops honing woodworking skills, playing with 3D printers and etching metal using saline and batteries. Anything the can add to my experience as a human being is something I cherish and am endlessly grateful for a space to truly express, I hope to take this gratitude forwards in my career and foster spaces for others. Let me cradle your weird with mine.
