Armin Hokmi

Armin Hokmi is working with dance and choreography. He began in 2009 as a performer with independent theatre in Iran and later continued to work and study abroad. He holds a B.A. in acting from Norwegian Theatre Academy (2015–2018) and has received his M.A. in Solo/Dance/Authorship at HZT Berlin (2019–2021).  

Armin Hokmi's dance and movement language is an interplay between a sense of familiarity with known forms and practices that elude recognition. He is cultivating a horizon where different possibilities of referentiality converge in contrast and alteration – particularly and in concern for dances that have been neglected and deemed unworthy of historical significance. Armin Hokmi’s choreographic practice embarks throughout time and space, persuading change through the constant unfolding of the dance into new trajectories. He is an associate artist at Montpellier Danse for 2024–2026.
