Dance Performance | Dance Work-in-Progress: Choreographer Tess Dworman


Performance Space 122’s Ramp residency program is designed to foster the creation of ambitious, new work from New York City-based emerging artists through space, time and invaluable technical resources. Each residency period culminates in free showings open to the public. Tess Dworman will use her week-long residency to experiment with merging very different kinds of choreographic and improvisational material to become part of the same world. She initiated the process with a collage-like structure that pins together brief self-contained dances and situations varying in representationalism, abstraction, emptiness, realism, and fantasy. The performers conjure these qualities through scores that amplify ambiguity as a skill and the craft of oscillating between image and sensation.
