Artist’s Bio
Daniel Kok studied BA Fine Arts & Critical Theory at Goldsmiths College (London, 1997-2001), MA Solo/Dance/Authorship (SODA, HZT, Berlin, 2012) and Advanced Performance and Scenography Studies (APASS, Brussels, 2014). In 2008, he received the Young Artist Award from the National Arts Council.

Recent works include “Bunny” (2016), “MARK” (2017) and “xhe” (2018).
