Julie Mayo

Julie Mayo is an artist who makes dances that foreground performance as content and resist easy description of lived experience. In New York she has had her work presented by Gibney, The Kitchen (DaP), The Chocolate Factory, Movement Research, Brooklyn Studios for Dance, JACK and Dixon Place and nationally by Highways in Los Angeles, and NOHspace and Dance Mission in San Francisco. Julie is a 2019-2020 Gibney DiP residency recipient, 2017-2018 Movement Research Artist-in-Residence, a 2014-2015 New York Live Arts Fresh Tracks artist, and has held residencies at UCross, Djerassi, Yaddo, Mount Tremper, Snug Harbor, and Virginia Center for Creative Arts. Her choreography is rooted in a perceptual inquiry guided by conditions that are constructed and happenstance and illuminates a decidedly personal sense of logic.
