Josie Bettman

Josie Bettman’s work investigates performance as a way of living—an ongoing act of self-creation that metabolizes memory into the present. Her practice moves fluidly between choreography, embodiment, and narrative, treating lived experience as both material and method. Bettman previously attended Catwalk during the Summer 2024 residency, where she developed the first draft of a narrative short film. During her Winter 2026 residency, she will continue refining and expanding this film, deepening its conceptual and performative dimensions.
