PERFORMANCE #1
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 11TH
1 to 2pm

Intersection Project is a spontaneous specific dance performance for 25 dancers. The 1 hour performance will occur once a month from September 2010- June 2011.


Intersection Project lead by Priscilla Guy & Kate Nankervis  aims to reinforce the presence of artists in the larger society by making them visible in urban spaces. Through pedestrian and simple movement vocabulary in city landscapes, the dance is accessible and belongs to anyone who is walking by.

Bodies become organic sculptures against urban architectures.

The performances organized by Intersection Project are opportunities for artists and audiences to meet in unexpected and unofficial settings; a reminder performance art also lives outside theatres.

Art is essential and  lives everywhere we decide to allow for it. Art reflects common needs and wants members of society share.

Intersection Project provides the art community and the population with a platform to share dialogue and debate the role and contribution of artists in the society at large.

  1. I was there at the performance today and it was great! you're all great! I love the choreography! reminds me of what people do in a daily life going from one place to another. I love how the pedestrians walked by and watched, and I hope they were thinking about the choreography and the dancing and what they will make out of it, speak to them.
