Amanda Miller
Artistic director of Miro Dance Theater, Amanda Miller has shown her work as a dancer and choreographer in venues ranging from England's Royal Opera House to New York's Whitney Museum of American Art. "I value dance, not for its surface pictures but for its fundamental insights into gravity, anatomy, and space," Miller says. It is this approach to movement that led to Miller's Center-supported choreographic research with Cambodian dance artist Sophiline Cheam Shapiro in Takhmao, Cambodia, which involved not only physical practice but critical analysis and reflection as well.
