Dance project benefits from social media – Polytechnic Press
Tired of their art being confined by their physical location, two Calgary based dancers have developed an innovative social media dance project known as inlayers.
The two artists had a vision to “vastly expand the art of contemporary dance to new levels by using online social media to reach a worldwide public,” said Taryn Javier, one of the project’s founders and choreographers.
