Course Description: This experimental workshop combines movement and visual art to explore how posture, shape, and spatial dynamics evoke and transform emotions. Through both physical and visual practices, students will examine how our bodies store memories and emotions, gain tools to deepen, release and express these sensations creatively, and explore how compositional variations of different shapes, edges, lines, and angles evokes different reactions and experiences in a viewer.


Instructor Bios:

Madaline Riley is a dancer, painter, and director who was born in Boston, Massachusetts and is currently based out of Los Angeles. She believes storytelling to be one of the most important tools for personal transformation in others as well as for her own metamorphic processes. Most of her performances and/or visual artworks end up being autobiographical/therapeutic. She has shown her work at The Brand Library and Art Center Glendale, MiM Gallery Los Angeles, Leimin Space, Laband Art Gallery at Loyola Marymount University, Arts at Blue Roof, Laputa Art Center in Shanghai, LA Dance Project and more. She has also worked as a collaborator on pieces that premiered at JOAT Festival International De Street Dance, Den Norske Opera & Ballett, and The Odyssey Theatre in Los Angeles. She has competed in many local U.S. dance events and has won battles such as World of Dance Boston and Los Angeles. As a choreographer she has worked with artists such as Kaytranada, Ivy Lab, and Zheani. And as a performer appeared in projects for Lady Gaga, Urban Decay, Puma x Balmain, A24 and more. She is a vibrant performer who loves working from the inside out and finding new ways to channel, connect, and for people to keep unraveling their innermost worlds.


Dani Adina Nordenberg (b. 1996) is a first generation, queer, Boston based painter, gardener, visual art educator and a member of the City of Revere’s Public Art Commission. Nordenberg’s work has been shown at Midway Artist Gallery in Boston, Shockboxx Gallery in LA, The Canvas by Querencia in NYC, and the Fay Chandler Emerging Artist Exhibition by the City of Boston. With images often touching on themes of authenticity, questions of what it means to reveal the (un)real and exploring its scope, their practice is a healing modality honoring growth that occurs in the unlocalized. Their paintings weave together realism with fantastical elements to create dreamlike narratives inviting viewers into spaces of subtle discomfort. Personal experiences, conversations, and sensations are assembled into surreal forms often derived from digitally collaging images and drawings. The consonance of bright colors with out-of-place imagery creates an eerie tone. Nordenberg’s creations serve as an homage to everything that defies categorization, seeking to preserve the tenderness of all that roams within the strange and uncertain.
