ABOUT THE RESIDENCY //

Earthian Folk Dance is a communal dance activity or play created and performed by Earthians. This new project starts from the intersection of my on-going investigations—redefining the principles and methods of Korean folk dance and exploring physical reconciliation of intercultural bodies. Through this project, I aim to develop contemporary tactics of organizing repeatable steps and rhythmic movements which are accessible to bodies of diverse backgrounds. I also seek to invent movement tasks that require the communal effort to fulfill. EFD strives for sharable fun in dance evoked by communal, physical excitement while accomplishing the joint tasks. EFD also challenges hyper-individuality of post-modern choreographies and hyper-cultural-representation of traditional folk dances, questioning the cultural and somatic identity of each participant. EFD celebrates team spirit and bodily exhilaration which can potentially take the group dance even to virtuosity.

This is a work-in-progress research presentation of Earthian Folk Dance. As an attendee, you might be invited to join the Earthian’s dancing steps at the end! You are also welcome to observe.

ABOUT THE ARTIST //

DaEun Jung is a bicultural dancer-choreographer whose work reveals her past and present body memories. Her works have been presented at performance venues in Los Angeles including Electric Lodge, Highways, The Mortuary, Pieter, and REDCAT. She has been awarded artist-in-residencies from Camera Obscura Art Lab, Dance Resource Center at KYCC Menlo Center, and Show Box LA at We Live in Space. DaEun redefines the principles, form, and origin of Korean classical/folk dance in inter/multi-cultural settings as a continuation of her graduate study at UCLA where she received her MFA in choreography and Westfield Emerging Artist Award. She has collaborated as a performer with choreographers such as Victoria Marks, Milka Djordjevich, Ros Warby, Wilfried Souly, Jeanine Durning, Shahar Biniamini, and Melinda Ring. www.daeunjung.com //

R+D: Early Project Support For Parents & Guardians

Feb 22, 2022

Los Angeles Performance Practice is thrilled to further expand on our Research + Development (R+D) program offerings by announcing a new residency opportunity for parents/guardians. The program will support an early development process for two invited projects. Each invited residency will receive a $1,200 stipend, a $800 contribution towards childcare expenses, and one week or approximately 40 hours in a work/rehearsal space. We are open to artists constructing their time in a way that serves their creativity and their parenting lives, and will work with each invited artist to find an appropriate work space based on the project’s needs and the program’s available resources.
