You’re invited to Versaille Jones’s LIFT Artist Residency with Core Dance! 🌱

Join us in our downstairs studio to experience the creative process on Saturday, September 26, from 6:30- 8 PM.

Versaille says, “My work grounds itself in the investigative process of deconstructing one’s own perception of memory. Exploring ways in which subjective timelines can birth isolated dimensions of truth.

I take interest in the multiplicitous nature of how each life is experienced and how messily they entangle themselves. In these crossing dimensions, the absurd and macabre are plucked out and placed under trials of reconfiguration until they morph into exaggerated versions of their former selves.”
