Last weekend, “The Essence of Us” had its world premiere at 92NY. Seeing the film finally meet an audience was incredibly special. 🥰

This project began because @malpasodance could not travel to New York for the planned premiere of @pedroruizjr23’s new work.

So we went to them.

What came out of that experience is a film about artists, collaboration, resilience, and the ways dance can connect us even when borders make that connection difficult.

That was always the heart of the film for us.

I’m so grateful to @92ndstreety for believing in this project and finding a way forward when the original plan became impossible. To Pedro and the dancers of Malpaso for welcoming us into their process. To @ashlibickford, @cdugganphoto, our Cuban collaborators, and everyone who helped bring this film to life.

And to everyone who came to the premiere, joined our Q&A, watched during the 72-hour streaming window, shared the film, or supported us along the way: thank you.

It was an honor to tell this story!!! ❤️ by @ashlibickford

Making Dance (long post + way overdue)

I’ve been on an incredible journey working on a documentary project the last 10 months following my dear friend Kayla Farrish into the dance studio and going behind the scenes with her on her creative process.

This is my first documentary and it’s been a really affirming, and wild experience. It’s challenged me in many ways, crafting a film is a big big thang! I’ve been really fortunate to work with Kayla and her cast of wildly talented collaborators. Her openness and commitment to her work is all encompassing. It’s been amazing to work with Ashli Bickford as DP she’s brought such wonderful energy on set and into the room on this project and done incredible work behind the lens. Shoutout to borrowing gear from friends and getting encouragement along the way. Project is halfway there, I am deep in the edit!

This film like most of my projects has been self funded, but I believe in this work. Liberation is important, freedom is important and Black women practicing, imagining, creating and expirementing in art is vital to the future of society. Will keep yall updated as the project continues! taken in New York, New York by @ashlibickford
