A Note from the Choreographer
Thank you from all my heart to the beautiful and interesting dancing people who made this piece with me. Your individuality, intelligence, warmth, talent, commitment, idiosyncrasies, and wit were and will always be potent fodder for any artistic collaboration.
Netta Yerushalmy is a dance artist based in New York City. Her work aims to engage with audiences by imparting the sensation of things as they are perceived, not as they are known, and to challenge how meaning is attributed and constructed.

She’s also been awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship, Princeton Arts Fellowship, Research Fellowship at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, Toulmin Fellowship for Women Leaders in Dance at the Center for Ballet and the Arts at New York University, New York City Center Choreography Fellowship, Jerome Robbins Bogliasco Fellowship, Foundation for Contemporary Arts Grants to Artists Award, National Dance Project Grant, commission from LMCC’s Extended Life program, Six Points Fellowship, and New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship.
