Creative Mornings November: Liminal
When we find ourselves in an in-between place, we might call our location “liminal.” Liminal space is found at the threshold, between leaving an old life and starting a new one. When we have shed a tired identity but not yet donned a fresh one. Liminality is a state of becoming. It slips away, eluding easy categorization.
Invite yourself into the cocoon of transformation. Instead of asking what comes after the chrysalis, what if, in the words of anthropologist Anna Lowenhaupt Tsing, we look around rather than ahead? If we learn to trust the process, we can remain curious and open. We can surrender our certainty and leave ourselves vulnerable and open to the mysteries of being. What joy and sweetness can we find in all this, in the depths of liminal spaces and times?
Katie Baer Schetlick is an Assistant Professor of Dance at the University of Virginia. In her teaching, artistic work, and research, she engages dance as a mode(s) of being, an historical object, a process of joyous unproductivity, a controlling and subversive apparatus all at once.
After graduating from the Alvin Ailey/Fordham BFA program, Katie performed as a freelance dancer with Yaa Samar! Dance Theatre, The Francesca Harper Project, Susan Marshall & Company, and Athena Kokoronis.
Katie's work has been presented at Dixon Place, Movement Research at Judson Church, NADA Hudson, Fleet Moves Dance Festival, Museum Perron Oost (Netherlands), Lublin International Dance Theatres Festival (Poland), SESC Villa Mariana (Brazil), Cairo Downtown Contemporary Arts Festival (Egypt), Bridge Progressive Arts Initiative, Ruffin Gallery, and the Welcome Gallery.
Together with frequent collaborator Zena Bibler, Katie has facilitated workshops at The New Museum, CLASSCLASSCLASS, Electric Fish Studio, Centrum Kultury W Lublinie, NYU, and Dance Studies Association Conferences.
She holds a MFA in Dance from Hollins University and a Masters in Performance Studies from New York University.
