Liiiam is a dance artist and sound creative based out of Brooklyn, NY. His artistic practice roots itself in “stutter/dancing”, a movement exploration that weaves the deeply embodied experience of stuttering into choreographic and pedagogical frameworks. By utilizing the unruly potential of stuttering, he aims to disrupt societal expectations around efficiency, communication, and clarity that so often embed themselves into everyday life. His work actively revolves around two overarching questions: What can stuttering teach movement? What can movement teach stuttering?
“Performance Mix Festival has its own life, and Karen and the staff continue to evolve with the times in a way I appreciate…it was tremendous to be a Liftoff AIR and then get to show the work I had continued to explore as an AIR a year later at PMF!”
