Duke Dance Program Spring Dance Series

A series of 360-degree immersive, popup performances situated in Duke Forest that manifests new worlds and ways of being for Black femme to exist within. Groove alongside southern Black femme as they trace their sense of self and care through movement to initiate a collective reimagining of Black girl possibility. Using blacklight, UV paint, and other found materials, Juliet and her collaborators construct internal and external spaces that push them to relate to their environment and themselves in otherwise ways. The series will be live-streamed with each performance being unique in content and duration. The recordings will be available to view on the artist's channel.

Collaborators: Alyah Baker, Lee Edwards, Ayan Felix, Amari Jones, Ife Michelle Presswood, and Namajala Naomi-Roque Washington
