Recalibrate the Value of the Body

 

Who I Am

I am a Carpatho-Rusyn American choreographer based in Minneapolis, MN. I create original works for the stage & screen that have ranged from solos to full evening length works. I am a 2021 Ann & Weston Hicks Choreography Fellows Program at Jacob’s Pillow, and 2020 Finalist for the Jerome Hill Artist Fellowship.

What I Do

I create original works that challenge and reframe the societal expectations and values assigned to the woman’s body. My work is rooted in body identity, an identity which is informed and shaped by socio-economics, sexuality, and power structures. My work recognizes that an eating disorder is a symptom of these powers that affects the mental and physical well being of an individual.
