Artists

Garrett Allen is a performance artist and director based in New York City. Their work and practice moves through liveness, embodied inquiry, and experience making, excavating human questionings, insatiable unknowing, and consciousness. Engaging performance, theater, video, sound, text, and image, Garrett explores and unfolds beauties and brutalities of being.

Justin Cabrillos is a choreographer, artist, and writer based in Brooklyn. His work has been commissioned by The Chocolate Factory Theater, Danspace Project, and the IN>TIME Series in Chicago. Cabrillos has presented work at OCAD in Toronto, the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, and Roulette. He has had residencies at Movement Research, Ucross, Yaddo, Zero Point Berlin, Center for Performance Research, and The Momentary in Arkansas. He was a 2016 danceWEB scholar at ImPulsTanz in Vienna under the mentorship of Tino Seghal and a recipient of a MAP microgrant, and a Greenhouse grant from the Chicago Dancemaker's Forum.

Moriah Evans positions choreography as an expansive social process. Drawing on somatic choreographic practices and feminist critiques of dance and visual culture, her work expands dance beyond the visible, to explore different ways of sensing both ourselves and our relationships to one another. Evans develops movement from the unseen interior of the body, by activating the emotional, somatic, and sensory systems to question the default hierarchies between notions of flesh, body, self, and subject. For Evans, choreography is a social political project that means far more than arranging bodies and movement in space; it is a serious and wide-ranging exploration of ideological beliefs–including feminist, sociological, and anthropological considerations. In Evans’ practice, one work leads to the next, each project forming a chapter in her ongoing process to inspire transformation–both physically and psychosocially–through action. Evans creates site-specific performances, theater-based productions, gallery and museum-based participatory installations, symposiums, theoretical texts, and curatorial projects. Recent works include: Scrimmage (The Renaissance Society, Chicago, IL, 2025); HARBORing (Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanic Garden, NY, 2025); BANKing (Musikinstallationen, Nuremberg, Germany, 2025); The Wait (New York Choreographic Institute, New York City Ballet, NY, 2024) Remains Persist (MOCA LA, CA, 2023; Performance Space New York, NY, 2022); Out of and Into: PLOT (Museion, Bolzano/Bozen, Italy, 2023); Rehearsals for Rehearsal (Public Art Fund, NY, 2022); RESTOS (Espacio Odeón, Bogotá, Colombia, 2021); REPOSE (Beach Sessions, NY, 2021); Be my Muse (Art Encounters Biennial, Timisoara, Romania, 2025; Pace Live, NY, 2021; Hirshhorn Museum, Washington, DC, 2018; Villa Empain, 2016); BASTARDS: We are all Illegitimate Children (NYU Skirball, NY, 2019); Configure (The Kitchen, NY 2018); Figuring (Sculpture Center, NY, 2018).
