The body is the medium through which we create art. 

Founded in 2016 by Artistic Director Katherine Maxwell, Hivewild is a contemporary movement platform based on the unceded land of the Lenapehoking People (Brooklyn, NY). Hivewild is dedicated to the presentation of formal, site-specific, and public works that ignite conversation and unlock emotion, rooted in the principles of radical inclusion and lifelong curiosity. Endemic to each Hivewild work, and the processes that create them, are strong senses of dignity, interconnectivity, and playfulness. Hivewild is an invitation to experience, feel, and be - embodying a broader bandwidth of what it means to be alive. 

Hivewild exists to present movement as an affirmation of human value and emotion. Through the presentation of formal evening-length works, public works, site specific projects, dance films, and situational encounters, Hivewild aims to act as a catalyst for movement, sensation, and interdisciplinary artistic exchange.

Members of Hivewild seek to invest in their communities by actively engaging in cross-disciplinary collaboration and skill-sharing. Every human has a body, and the artists use this understanding as a starting point to identify connections and celebrate differences between people. Hivewild aims to use accessible performance work to engage a variety of viewers: artists, art enthusiasts, and those who have yet to experience contemporary dance work.
