Originally from North Carolina, Julia Sloane is a multifaceted artist with a love for experimental performance. Sloane received a BFA in Dance from Cornish College of the Arts; since then, she has worked professionally with Dayna Hanson, Peggy Piacenza, Heather Kravas, Jody Kuehner/Cherdonna Sinatra, and Kate Wallich, among other projects.
Her own work has been presented in Northwest NextFest and Trigger: New Dance Happenings, as well as in multiple self-produced dance films. Sloane is the operations and programs manager for Base, a nonprofit performance and residency space in Seattle that supports experimental dance and multidisciplinary performance. She currently resides in NYC, working as a freelance dance artist, production manager and Pilates instructor.
As a performer and creator, she is interested in experimental performance work that crosses modalities and asks questions about humanity and the ways in which we exist––what it means to be here together now and how individual and collective movement informs our lives as a whole. Currently, she’s interested in limitations, minimalism and things unfolding in real time, all as part of a larger quest towards continuous unveiling.
