In everyday life she is constantly looking for opportunities to improvise.
Magda Jędra is a dancer, choreographer, and performer. Her foregoing works have a strong affinity to performance art and the site-specific approach. She likes to combine different styles and mix tools
characteristic for what is referred to as “pop culture” and “highbrow culture”. In her work she likes to use kitsch and irony. She often makes use of texts. She believes that working on a piece is an act of
subjecting oneself to creative process. She considers improvisation to be foundation in this process.
Zornitsa Stoyanova is an award-winning performance artist, curator, writer, lighting and video designer based in Philadelphia, PA. A native of Bulgaria, she produces and presents both her own and other’s work under the name Here[begin] Dance.
