SUMMARY:“Our Wounds\, Our Power” Work-in-Process Showing with Skyla Schreter Dance
DESCRIPTION:“Our Wounds\, Our Power” Work-in-Process Showing with Skyla Schreter Dance\nDate & Time: Sunday\, June 30\, 2024 3:30-4:30PM\nFee: FREE! Community Program \nJoin Skyla Schreter Dance at Bethany Arts Community for a presentation showcasing the creative process of their newest project “Our Wounds\, Our Power.” Choreographer Skyla Schreter will lead the company dancers through a live demonstration of the various artistic influences that form the foundation of the project’s source inspiration. Showcasing excerpts of the new choreography created while in residence at BAC\, the presentation will illustrate how the particular artistic inspirations for the project – encompassing poetry\, painting\, costuming and music – come to life in the creation of the choreography. \nThis residency is supported by the New York State Council on the Arts Individual Artist Award – Choreography Commission. \nThis event is a Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather\, engage\, and be in conversation with one another through art. Community Programs are free engagements open to the public and/or in collaboration with a local community partner. \nAbout “Our Wounds\, Our Power”\nPulling inspiration from feminist pioneers across artistic disciplines and scientific fields\, “Our Wounds\, Our Power’‘ examines healing as a continuum that is in constant flux\, rather than an end result that can be achieved. \nIn their residency at BAC\, Skyla Schreter Dance will experiment with forming a collective identity that traverses through various psychological\, sensational and emotional stages of healing\, particularly related to their experiences as womxn; investigating and interweaving the transitory nature of a cyclical process that is ever-evolving. \nChoreography for “Our Wounds\, Our Power” will be created by Skyla Schreter\, in collaboration with the dancers of Skyla Schreter Dance. “Our Wounds\, Our Power” references\, quotes and integrates artistic work from Mira Calix\, Adrienne Rich\, Michelle Silver and Lauren Carmen. \nAbout The Company\nSkyla Schreter (choreographer & artistic director)\nSkyla Schreter is a New-York based choreographer and multi-disciplinary artist\, formerly a dancer with San Francisco Ballet for six seasons\, where she created original roles in works by contemporary ballet choreographers including William Forsythe\, Justin Peck\, Cathy Marston and David Dawson\, to name a few.
