KO Jihae

KO Jihae is an interdisciplinary dance artist, acupuncturist, somatic practitioner, and researcher based in Amsterdam, originally from South Korea.

Working through the body as a primary medium, her practice explores art, healing, and nature as one interconnected language. Through site-specific ritual performances and sensory-energy practices, she investigates the intimate relationship between the body and the natural world, recontextualising ancient teachings within the contemporary body.

She is also a co-founder of Medicine Body Studio, where she offers private sessions, workshops, and ongoing research. The nature retreats are developed in collaboration with Cuore del Sole Artist Residency & Retreat.
