Sasha Amaya is a dancer, choreographer, and installation artist. Amaya’s works are occupied with form, movement, dance, art history, collage, text, and architectural surrounds as means to revisit the so-called canon of art history. In doing so, she utilizes, rejects, reframes, and repurposes historical narratives and techniques in contemporary art work as part of a broader illumination and reconfiguration of the relationship between politics, aesthetics, and the possible. Shown in both visual art and choreographic contexts, her works are known for their combination of play and precision, her biting revisions of the art historical, and the body as a radical agent of form. Amaya studied dance, music, and philosophy, and holds an MPhil in Architecture and Urban Studies from the University of Cambridge.
