The Emory Dance and Movement Studies program presents an evening of dance featuring choreography by Julio Medina and guest artist Nadya Zeitlin.
Medina presents a remounting of Ridge (2021) and shares an excerpt of a new work titled desahogo:undrown. The latter work explores concepts of space, time, and identity, using techniques from martial arts to counter and heal from meta/physical attacks imposed by the residues of colonialism on wellness.
Guest artist Nadya Zeitlin shares a new version of Arches & Textures DWTN. She explores the unique architecture of Atlanta's Central Library, which was designed in Brutalist style by Bauhaus architect Marcel Breuer and renovated in November 2021 after being on the edge of demolition.
Approximate run-time: 75 minutes with intermission
