Arts Access is celebrating International Dance Day again this year with a special presentation of three new dances by our talented choreographers! Ryan Danzinger, Jessica Evans, and Phillip Fisher are each presenting a unique dance that speaks to their own artistic sentiments.
Ryan Danzinger is one of our newer participants who choreographs and paints with Arts Access. He loves to explore pattern and tempo and chooses music that inspires him and makes him feel good. This piece was first premiered at the Disability Awareness Month Assembly at Franklin Elementary School in South Plainfield, NJ.
Jessica Evans is a remarkable woman whose passion for the arts is evident through her ever-developing portfolio of work. She explores her creative vision through numerous mediums, including painting, writing, and dance. Jessica will often cross the lines between mediums to execute multidisciplinary works. She has literally performed a dance on a painting to create a visual work and has used the power of words in her work to offer deeper insight into her art. Jessica’s art is an unfiltered expression of self with a wide range in themes and ideas. Whether her work is warm and hopeful, fun and wacky, caring and compassionate, or thoughtful and expressionistic, it is always genuine.
This is a world premiere of this piece!
Phillip Fisher is a diverse artist and enjoys creating art across multiple disciplines. His visual art features vibrant color choices and a layering of various shapes. Philip’s artistic style grasps the viewer’s attention, calling viewers to look more closely at the intricacies of the work. In addition to his visual art, Philip is passionate about choreography, which has provided him a means of bringing his internal artistic visions to the stage.
This piece premiered in March at the Dance New Jersey Show Up & Dance Festival at Montclair State University.
Thanks to Ryan, Jess, and Phil for helping us celebrate International Dance Day this year!
