Elliot Reza Emadian is an interdisciplinary artist and educator. Their work occurs in the intersection of dance and choreography, video art and editing, sound and music, light and photography, and popular culture. Through a lifetime of dancing, they have accrued influences from tap and jazz styles, contemporary releasing forms, modern dance, ballet, popular music video dance, and experimental performance art. Elliot has performed and toured with Sara Hook Dances and David Parker, and presented solo choreography across the US. Most recently, ‘Jack and Diane’ was presented at “In the heartland” (Links Hall, Chicago, IL). For Elliot and their collaborators, choreographic projects function as a framework for re-encountering the story of American culture through written, artistic, and educational interventions.
