Performer and choreographer Jacob Jonas' daily meditations on strength, vulnerability, life and self-love while battling lymphoma
Published with Jacob Jonas The Company and SpineSun.
Los Angeles-based choreographer Jacob Jonas has established himself as a visionary artist at the forefront of contemporary dance, known for his groundbreaking fusion of movement, interdisciplinary collaboration and community engagement. He has worked with performers such as Kanye West, Elton John, RosalÃa, SZA and Sia. In 2022, Jonas was diagnosed with stage 4 diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a rare side effect of the Crohn's medication he had taken intravenously for a decade. Facing a nine-in-10,000 chance, he tragically became the one.Cemented Beauty is Jonas' raw and poetic memoir, inviting readers into a deeply personal account of his battle with cancer and return to health. Told through intimate journal entries and self-portraits, this book explores the complexities of life, death and identity, taking an unflinching look at the physical and psychological impact of living with terminal illness and the mental and emotional turmoil that accompanies it.
