BEATRICE GOSSE (she/they) is a director, creative director, and performance artist based in Los Angeles (the unceded land of the Tongva/Kizh/Gabrielino peoples). They examine the intersection between dance, technology, and filmmaking—devouring and transmuting ideas of queer identity, stomping on the social architecture of Transness, and encouraging unraveling, reordering, and chaos inside the body. They believe through chaos, we relearn how to care for ourselves and our world, and through creative processes, we understand the balance of empathy and rage. Their work honors storytelling as language, sweat as currency, and breath as ritual.

As a film director, they have presented film works at SciArc: A Queer Query, NewFest, Palm Springs International Film Festival, New Orleans Film Festival, and Leeds International Film Festival, and have been featured on Nowness Asia and Dance Magazine.

As a creative director with more than a decade of experience in art direction, they’ve crafted commercial, documentary, narrative, and experiential projects for brands, creative agencies, and production companies—working across strategy, development, production, and post-production. They’ve led workshops on creative development and advertising technology for PSIFF and Minorities in Film.

Their dance work includes collaborations with visionary choreographers like Ryan Heffington, Nina McNeely, Jasmine Albuquerque-Croissant, Amy Gardner, Denna Thomsen, Sierra Fujita, and Jas Lin, shaping projects with artists such as Mitski, Kesha, Cassils, Enrique Agudo, Big Freedia, Disiniblud, Miss Velvet, and Tyga. Spanning commercial, film, television, stage, and underground-experimental performance, their cross-medium work harnesses movement to explore identity, challenge censorship, and create intentional spaces for expression, healing, and rage within queer and gender-expansive communities.
