ABOUT

Hope Kennedy is a performer, movement artist and facilitator born and bred in Fife, Scotland. She is an interdisciplinary artist whose work centres around devised movement and text practice, with a focus on lived experience, womanhood, rage and elation: she creates patchwork stories made up of her own history, overheard conversation, lists and found text.

 

 

Her work often takes on a melancholy hue, working with themes of loss, longing/belonging, and letting go after holding on very tightly. Working with a homemade, almost storybook aesthetic, Hope creates somehow familiar dreamscapes that hold the audience fully, wholly and generously in the worlds she creates.  

 

 

Hope is a collaborative artist at heart, who loves playing and experimenting with different methods of creating with a collective. The core of Hope’s work revolves around creating intricate and enveloping worlds that invite audiences to reminisce and recollect their own joy.

​

Under the name lovebug + worm, alongside artist Florence Logan, Hope creates physical theatre performances for an early years audience.
