Formerly Humanistics Dance
A global dance company and platform for choreography, embodied research, and collaborative inquiry
 

Hysterical Women, premiering at the International Human Rights Arts Festival (IHRAF), is a collaboration with composer Moira Lo Bianco that examines the gendered conditions of labor, control, and emotional expression. Situated within both historical and contemporary contexts, the work interrogates how women’s bodies and voices are regulated, contained, and made legible. Through choreography, sound, and text, Hysterical Women employs repetition, constraint, and endurance to build a physical language of tension—where composure fractures, excess emerges, and the body resists the demand to be manageable.

Labor/Labour is an interdisciplinary research and performance project that explores how work—creative, physical, and care-based—shapes identity, value, and the lived experience of the body. Developed through interviews, workshops, and embodied research, the project brings artists into dialogue with workers across sectors, tracing points of connection, friction, and shared precarity. Moving between social inquiry and choreographic practice, Labor/Labour positions dance as both method and medium—an approach to understanding how labor is felt, performed, and negotiated in everyday life.
