Jordan Deal, also known as ROSEKILLJUPITER, is a Philadelphia-based multidisciplinary practitioner, performance artist, and alchemist. Their investigative practice uses performance, sound, image, and their body as a conduit between unseen forces and the materializations of socio-political structures and mythologies. They have been investigating technologies/modalities of relations and movement that harness and disperse chaotic forces as a subversive material and methodology. Deal has presented performance work in New York City at Judson Memorial Church, Center for Performance Research, Amant Foundation, and The Brick Theater, Cafe OTO (London), Icebox Project Space, MAAS Building (Philadelphia), and The Lab (San Francisco), among others. They have exhibited at Fleisher-Ollman Gallery, Vox Populi, Grizzly Grizzly, Fleisher Art Memorial, CP Projects Space, Kohl Gallery, and S.N.A.I.L Gallery. They have recently been awarded a 2023-2024 artistic fellowship at the Leslie-Lohman Museum, and were a fall 2022 research fellow at Amant Foundation in Brooklyn. In 2021, they were a fellow at the Headlong Performance Institute in Philadelphia.Deal’s films have been in Blackstar Film Festival (Philadelphia), Indie Fest (Los Angeles), and the Paris Film Festival.
“Performance Mix Festival has its own life, and Karen and the staff continue to evolve with the times in a way I appreciate…it was tremendous to be a Liftoff AIR and then get to show the work I had continued to explore as an AIR a year later at PMF!”
