Lion's Jaw Performance 1
The second annual Lions Jaw Performance and Dance Festival presents two evenings of public performances by the featured festival artists.
This evening of performance features work by six of the Lion's Jaw festival artists:
Keith Hennessy dances in and around performance. Born in northern Ontario, he lives in San Francisco since 1982 and tours internationally. His performances engage improvisation, ritual, collaboration, and public action as tools for investigating political realities. Practices inspired by anarchism, critical whiteness, post/Modern dance, activist art, the Bay Area, wicca, punk, contact improvisation, and queer-feminism motivate and mobilize Hennessys work.
Donna Mejia As a transnational fusion dance artist, Donna Mejia distinctive aesthetic dialogs the secular dances of North Africa and the Arab World with American Hip Hop dance and sub-genres of electronic dance/music culture.
Joy Davis is a dance artist, educator, and scholar. Under the moniker joy davis project, she produces collaborative and location-based dance performance since beginning in 2006.
Joy Mariama Smith is a native Philadelphian currently based in Den Haag, NL. Their work primarily addresses the conundrum of projected identities in various contexts. A sub-theme, or ongoing question in their work is: What is the interplay between the body and its physical environment?
Michelle Boulé is a Brooklyn-based, Bessie Award winning dance artist, teacher, and BodyTalk Practitioner. Her research includes ongoing studies of traditional and contemporary views on somatics, healing and the physical expression of consciousness.
Alice Gosti is an Italian-American choreographer, hybrid performance artist, curator and architect of experiences, working between Seattle and Europe since 2008. Dance Magazine has described Gostis work as unruly yet rigorous, feminine yet rebellious, task-like yet mischievous.
