Pittsburgh Artist Registry

slowdanger is a movement/music duo co-founded by Anna Thompson and Taylor Knight. Slowdanger uses their bodies as mediums of memory to express through movement, sound, and visual imagery. From an energetic and sensual connection to body and spirit, Taylor and Anna use performance as ritual practice to delve into patterns of the circular rhythm of life. Slowdanger aims to connect their audience to their own body, by producing work that induces visceral reaction and by offering movement experiences to varied levels of movers in the Pittsburgh area. They believe that if a viewer has been given a personal movement experience, they will be more open and sensitive to noticing the kinesthetic reactions that happen naturally when viewing performance work. Slowdanger generates a thickness of memory through filtering veiled remembrances until they are distilled to their simplest form. Repurposing their own product so it remains constantly in process.
