PERFORMANCE
It's always more than just a performance
My work holds honesty, vulnerability, and ownership. I am a dance artist who focuses her movement research on the unpredictable nature of improvisational play and the structural familiarity of narrative movement. I investigate narrative through historical research. Utilizing the art of film, visual production, theatre, and musical compositions, I create a collage of multiple viewpoints within a movement sketch.
In the moments I find the work calls for the storyline; I am ignited by the smaller intricacies of gestural meaning. Once I create rules that make room for mistakes, observations, and elaborations to be made, I am charged with excitement to test the boundaries of the body, mind, and spirit.
