“Amidst a realm where intangible algorithms and the skillfulness of artificial intelligence entice and form our digital encounters, can we coexist with this technological sensation while daring to question its influence and allure, acknowledging its intrinsic connection to our very existence?

I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to the exceptional dancers of the 2023-24 Gibney Pro cohort, who have been under the remarkable guidance of Alexandra Wells. Your dedication to incubating and workshopping some movement material and imagery was genuinely inspiring. Thank you for being a part of the process!”
