I am Dominica Greene, a bi-racial Black woman who cherishes and channels my Caribbean heritage and Queerness through an art-based existence.
I believe that dance is one of our purest sources of hope and liberation.
Based in Brooklyn, New York, I make conceptual, body-based work, rooted in my mission of reflecting to as many people as possible that they not only have the capacity to dance, but are in fact already dancing, perpetually. Utilizing various modalities, tasks, and mental/emotional states to cultivate safe environments for sensorial and creative exploration, I am to impress that dancing is not something to be learned, but something we have innate access to simply by being alive.
I create time-centered ecosystems under this premise, to be interacted with and performed by any number of participants.
My work has been presented by Arts on Site, A Shedding, BADDANCE, Carnegie Museum of Art, Center for Performance Research (CPR), Issue Project Room, LEIMAY, Movement Research at the Judson Church, Queer Spectra Arts Festival, Ririe-Woodbury Dance Company, Salt Contemporary Dance Company, and Triskelion Arts.
