Yon Natalie Mik (Berlin/Seoul) is an interdisciplinary artist and dance maker whose work investigates social systems and data culture through expanded choreographies that move across visual, performative and aural media. Her works often take shape through in-depth field studies that examine how movements archive political and affective information, translating these field observations into performances or installation environments. She is especially interested in the intersecion of intimate labor, ghost work, women in migration networks, and the kinetics of spiritual healing practices. Her practice unfolds across diverse environments, including public spaces, schools and art institutions. Some works can also be experienced remotely at home, enabling audiences to engage with the work on their own terms and in their own time. Currently, she is teaching Contemporary Dance as a Guest Professor at the Korea National University of Arts in Seoul.

Yon Natalie Mik co-founded The Invisible Archive (TIA) in 2019, a multi-authored archive and independent publication project that explores the intersection of art and activism through the lens of performativity and embodiment. TIA is self-organized and produced collaboratively with other artists, researchers, and activists. Her Ph.D. project titled Choreography of the Ghost - Dancing Resistance and Transcultural Archives was part of the research group Normativity, Critique, Change at the Free University of Berlin and funded by the German Research Foundation.
