 ARTIST BIO

Star Mitchell (They|Them) is a luminous force of rebirth. A Native New Yorker walking in their creative audacity. Using their art to deepen their ancestral connection, dismantle and rebuild narratives pertaining to the black and brown body, and provide a radical approach to healing. 

 Since 2016, Star has taught movement as interpersonal connection, providing creative assistance, movement coordination, and program coordination for Black and Brown youth. The spirit of Sankofa—“Go Back and Get It” has fortified Star’s desire to reimagine worlds, uproot traumas, and speak unspoken truths through their creations. This idea has been the foundation for many of their creative choices and collaborations. Presently Star is a Pioneers Go East NEXT Mentee, A Bristol Mary Company Member, and Teaching Artist in Brooklyn. Actively working towards a Residency overseas.
