Campaign Story
Tracing is a month long residency (May 7th- June 2nd) curated and facilitated by Emelia Brumbaugh and Olana Flynn as part of the Mill Arts Project at Eastworks in Easthampton, Massachusetts.
The residency will provide four multi-media artists, Olana Flynn, Ryan Caruso, Emelia Brumbaugh and Madison Palffy, the opportunity to engage in their personal artistic practice while simultaneously establishing a collaborative artistic process with each other. The residency will culminate in a multi-media performance or installation resulting from the month long collaboration. The work will engage fundamentally with dance, movement design, and space as a workable medium.
Tracing is also an opportunity for an experimental artistic process to be shared with the community at large. Weekly public events geared towards sharing points of artistic investigation and generating material offer a refreshingly unique relationship between artists and their local community.
Our reason for initiating this project and excitement to see it through to fruition comes from a desire to re-frame dance for ourselves and our surrounding community. We hope to challenge definitions of dance making as an art not limited to technical corporeal entertainment but as expansive, and as simply, as the design of space and time itself.
All recent graduates, we are committed to being a part of creating the field we want to make work in. This includes finding venues for our creative practices, rediscovering what kind of symbiotic relationships we can have with our audience and establishing funds to pay for installation materials, event costs, marketing, and artist stipends.
The residency will provide up to four artists the opportunity to engage in their personal practice while simultaneously establishing a collaborative process with each other. The residency will culminate in a multi-media performance or installation collaboratively created by participants. This work will engage fundamentally with dance, movement design, and space as a workable medium. Specific themes will be established collaboratively in the first few days of the residency based upon shared interests, and developed during weekly group rehearsals.

All recent post-grads, we are similarly commited to creating the field we want to make work in. This includes finding hosts and venues for our creative practices and determining what kind of symbiotic relationship we can have with our audience.
