Anouk Hoogendoorn is an artistic researcher that works with text, textile, and performance. The (spoken) texts, textiles, sketches, and sounds that come out of this practice are moments of processes rather than presentations fixed once and for all. They are currently doing a practice-based PhD at School of Arts and Creative Industries, Teesside University (UK) and Institute for Performing Arts and Film, Zurich University of the Arts (CH). Their research explores the materiality and material conditions of writing and reading. Here the material is meant in twofold: both the socio-political dimension (informed by queer and disability studies) and the artistic (informed by language-based artistic research).

Anouk has a practice that always has an important collaborative, experimental, and pedagogical orientation to it. Currently they are Theory and Artistic Research Tutor at BEAR Fine Arts, are a part of the School of Commons ’26 Cohort, and co-host the special interest group Words as Matter at the Language-Based Artistic Research Group. Anouk often shares their research at symposia and through workshops. They have done (guest) teaching at Master in Curating Teesside University (UK), Åbo Akademi (FI), Master in Theatre Maastricht (NL), and Sandberg Institute (NL) among others. In the last couple of years, they were visiting researcher at Access in the Making Lab (CA), artist in residence at Titanik Gallery (FI) and Casa Liquida (BR), and part of the Nida Doctoral School (LI). Prior to this, they were part of the PEERS ’22/’23 Cohort, No Academy 2021, and received the Artist Start Grant Mondriaan Fonds.
