About Faye Driscoll
- Faye Driscoll (born November 22, 1975) is a Bessie Award-winning American dancer and choreographer who has been called "a startlingly original talent" by the New York Times.
- As an artist, Faye's goal was to be somebody in a world of "somebodies".
- Through choreography, she expresses interaction between others, comedy, humility and love.
- Her work has been performed at institutions across the United States and internationally including the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Danspace Project, Dance Theater Workshop, Wexner Center for the Arts, MCA Chicago, ICA Boston, Portland Institute of Contemporary Arts, Walker Art Center, Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival, Croatian National Theatre, and others.
- Faye intertwines choreography with traditional studio art as she makes dances that are mistaken for installations.
- Her choreography has also been seen as written plays rather than dance.
- Many of her performances include verbal elements as well as extensive use of props, that break away from the “real world” and focus more on fantasy.
- The viewer is placed on a rollercoaster as they view the performance, emotions such as joy, outrage, and discomfort are expected in a singular viewing.
- There is a sense of closeness and separation throughout her choreographed performances.
- Faye truly wants to surprise the viewer in what they expected from her choreography.
- Another technique Faye uses in her choreography is deconstruction.
- With her extensive training and understanding of dance, she has taken bits and pieces and deconstructed them into bite-sized movements.
- Much of her choreography is left in the hands of the performer.
- Her concept is portrayed in a new distinct way each time it is performed.
- No movement is the same, as the performer has freedom.
- She credits the performance to the dancers, but the concept to her own imagination.
