nora chipaumire was born in 1965 in what was then known as Umtali, Rhodesia (now Mutare, Zimbabwe). She is a product of colonial education for black native Africans — known as group B schooling — and is invested in knowledge acquisition and sharing outside of prescribed parameters.
chipaumire’s current work includes “acontinua – a manual for a life lived chasing LIFE” (2025), the installation “afternow” (2022), and the devised choreographic work “Dambudzo” (2024). Her other live works encompass “NOT waiting,” (2023) a wordless live cinema play, “NEHANDA” (2021), a large-scale opera, “#PUNK 100% POP *NIGGA” (2019), a three-part live performance album, “portrait of myself as my father” (2016), “RITE RIOT” (2012), and “Miriam” (2012). She released a Radio Opera (2021) and the Live Album OFFCUTS (2023), has been featured in dance films, and made her directorial debut with the short film “Afro Promo #1 King Lady” (2016). Her long-term research project “nhaka,” a technology-based practice and process to her artistic work, which instigates and investigates the nature of black bodies and the products of their imaginations. “nhaka bhuku 1” has been published in 2020 at the courtesy of Matadero Publishing House (Spain).
She is a four-time Bessie Award winner and recipient of the 2016 Trisha McKenzie Memorial Award for her impact on the dance community in Zimbabwe. Additional Awards include recent three-year structural support from the Mellon Foundation (2022-25), the “Dance Bubble” grant from the Mellon Foundation (2021), a Guggenheim Fellowship (2018), a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Grant (2016), a Doris Duke Artist Award (2015) and a Princeton Hodder Fellowship (2014). She was a Senior Fellow at the Quick Center for the Arts at Fairfield University during the 2022/2023 academic year and also served as a guest professor at the Freie Universität Berlin in the fall of 2023. Most recently, she was a Doris Duke Fellow, a Researcher-in-Residence at the NYU Future Imagination Collaboratory, and a Mellon Artist-in-Residence at Columbia University. In November 2023, she was awarded the Grand Prix de la Danse de Montréal for “Nehanda.”
