Artist in Residence, Zornitsa Stoyanova, is an artist and a mother. Known as a choreographer in Philadelphia, in the last three years she’s primarily worked with photography and film. As an extension of her visual art, she is creating a performance called Explicit Female.

Explicit Female is an interactive event for one performer and twenty audience members. It is an immersion into the female body. Featuring personal narratives, custom designed lighting and live feed special effects, it aims to process the mystery of the shapeshifting form half of the world resides in. Casual, yet intimate, the performance strives to connect deeply and kinesthetically to the viewers, at times asking them to participate in the very creation of the event itself.

Explicit Female involves full nudity and is possible with the help and expertice of Annie Wilson, Christina Gesualdi and Laura Vriend.
