The Fall 2023 Emory Dance Company Concert features new work by 2023-24 Emory Arts Fellow Annalee Traylor, guest artist Celeste Miller, and Emory dance faculty Gregory Catellier, George Staib, and Lori Teague.
Read about faculty member Annalee Traylor's work and process below!
I am thrilled to be collaborating with such a talented, thoughtful, and generous cast. Each individual brings their unique talents and perspectives, making them an integral part of the work's trajectory. Together, we are creating a world full of contradictions; I remain intrigued and inspired by its possibilities.
My process oscillates between prompt-driven exercises and movement generated from my body. Artifice is in perpetual query as we employ distortion and exaggeration to juxtapose raw and vulnerable moments. The idea or notion of persona has provided a conceptual framework for the work. Throughout the process, we continually examine how expressivity manifests through our entire being.
I hope the work evokes an emotional reaction/connection for the viewer - whether through humor, pleasure, sentimentality, disgust, shock, confusion or another emotion - an underlying goal is always that the viewer has felt something.
