Alex Blum (she/her) is educated in choreography at School for New Dance Development in Amsterdam and in political science at Freie Universität Berlin. As a researcher affiliated with the queer performance pedagogical platform In Pursuit of Otherwise Possibility, Alex writes and teaches about queer feedback, consent, and rejection practices in Denmark, the Netherlands, and Germany.

Alex's artistic work unfolds embodied notions of freedom in the face of violence. In performances at a wide range of international venues, Alex involves the audience in the rehearsal situation of dance to highlight the body's ability to touch, listen to, consent to, and witness each other as more than just political fixations.

In Alex's works and texts, biography and activism often merge with (Danish) queer historical archives, including those on the Gay Liberation Front and Lili Elbe. This is her contribution to the democratic conversation: to choreograph testimonies that there have always been and always will be ways to make our bodies outside the norm, and that breaking the norm is the embodiment of freedom.
