IMGE
IMGE Dance (“image”) is a genre-blurring dance company that unravels traditional forms from Indian and American classical, folk, street styles, and contemporary to reinvent how movement connects our experiences. Their work often navigates themes of belonging and home, multiplicity in identities, and mythic explanations of reality to make audiences think more about how they interact with the world.
ISHITA MILI
IMGE was founded in 2017 by Artistic Director Ishita Mili, and has collected niche artists with unique identities across NJ/NY. Ishita created the IMGE methodology by weaving her eclectic foundation in Mayurbhanj chhau, house, bharatanatyam, old-way vogue, and more diasporic forms. She was awarded Artist of Exceptional Merit by the Asian American Arts Alliance. Ishita was a guest choreographer at Princeton and Gonzaga University and is currently a LabWorks Artist ‘24-’25 at New Victory Theater.
