Kourtney A. Surgent
I honor the woman within me—
Her poise, her strength, her unshakable presence.
I support her as she confronts and reimagines a world that often underestimates her.
I cherish her devotion to truth.
I adore her brown skin, full lips, textured hair, curved silhouette, and bold, rounded nose.
Her journey is her story.
Her story is her narrative.
And her narrative is resistance—disrupting silence, dismantling stigma, and reclaiming space.
As a woman, artist, and activist, I am poetically driven to create movement-based work that centers lived experience, identity, and liberation. My art is not only expression—it is testimony, conversation, and catalyst.
Through dance, I seek to honor the ongoing journey to be seen.
To be heard.
To be respected.
To be free.
