Kat Válastur created this artwork together with our artistic director Ty Boomershine, Dance On Ensemble member Omagbitse Omagbemi and Berlin based dancer Leah Katz in the context of ENTER project, an initiative of Onassis Foundation that gave artists from all around the world 120 hours to create from home a series of new original commissions sharing their new realty during the crisis.
The Dance On Ensemble consists of ten extraordinary dancers who are defying convention by continuing to perform on stage beyond 40, the usual age of retirement for dancers. Why I dance on - the first interview is with Ty Boomershine, the ensemble’s artistic director.
In our interview series we introduce you to the wonderful dancers* of the Dance On Ensemble. Why I dance on - Emma Lewis talks about beginnings and transitions, about enduring physical pain and her most beautiful 50th birthday present.
The great dancer from Dance On Ensemble, Marco Volta, speaks in our interview series "Why I dance on" about why he continued dancing after an accident, the benefits of experience and the best warmup.
