about

Skye is a queergaylesbian and multidisciplinary artist, making body-based performance. Her artistic practice is driven by the desire to investigate identity politics, oppression, and information war — how these phenomena are inscribed upon the body, and how that inscription shapes our inner life and connection to each other. At the intersection of these powerful forces, how do we recover our agency, ourselves — moment to moment?
Skye majored in dance at Interlochen Arts Academy in Michigan; holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in dance from the University of Colorado, where she studied with Michelle Ellsworth, Erika Randall, Gesel Mason, and Rennie Harris; and is an alum of Headlong Performance Institute in Philadelphia, PA, under the direction of David Brick. She has also worked as assistant to Ed Bowes on four feature-length films. She is an Action Theater teacher, and studied with Ruth Zaporah since 2012. Skye uses the Action Theater method to practice improvisation through movement, voice, and text with fellow performers, students, and teachers.
She is based in Seattle, WA.
