Studio Works is an informal performance series for local artists to share work in any stage of their process. Artist are given studio space and complete full agency over how and what they share. All proceeds go to the artists.

Vyette Tiya:
“building a house for a home” explores what it means to seek steady ground. Collaborative and interdisciplinary, this piece considers recollection, displacement, lineage, and homemaking – a calling back to move forward.
Featured collaborator: Daniel Sohn ( ).

Miryam Coppersmith:
“I’m taking up so much space I’m excreting it.” This work in progress explores themes of abundance and scarcity in our individual lives, communities, and ecosystems. Whenever I approach clarity of what abundance might look like for me personally, I snag when I consider how my wildest hopes or dreams would affect the environment or communities around me. How could we actually navigate personal and collective abundance? And what is that, past the buzzwords, anyway? This ensemble of artists has been exploring these questions through discussion, movement, and play in space.
Featured. collaborators: Kimya Imani Jackson, Shannon Brooks, and Leigh Huster

Aubrey Donisch and Shana Crawford:
We are figuring out the Echosystem. This is: A duet that exists in phases. A duet that transposes space. A duet that transmits the energy. A duet that acts as the carbon. A duet that is built from and for more than just us.

Looking especially for:
- resources from BIPOC and indigenous artists
- non-written resources (podcasts, video, etc.)
- resources geared towards choreography, improvisational dance, physical theater and devised theater
AND open to answers that don't fit these criteria!
