Artist Files is a new project created by Erica Santiago, Artistic Director of the Austin-based Shakti Moves Dance Co and BFA Ballet & Modern Dance, 2002. Designed to be a mentored experience for emerging and mid-career dancemakers, the Artist Files Project is also a model for engaging audiences to contribute to process such that they are invested, on a personal level, in the final production. In this first edition of Artist Files, Erica is working with mentor Susan Douglas Roberts, Professor Emerita in Classical & Contemporary Dance and choreographer Hannah (Ernest) Requa, BFA Ballet and Modern Dance, 2011, is mentored by Elizabeth Gillaspy, Professor of Dance.
