Masks

Dorian Taylor is a multidisciplinary artist based in Chicago, Illinois, who uses devised/physical theatre, puppetry, spoken word, visual media, music, spatial soundscapes, and stagecraft to create original performance work.

Dorian is inspired by nature and our curious relationship with it: we are part of nature, yet we separate ourselves from it. Her work investigates connections between people and the natural world through lyrical interpretations of science. In a world where cutting-edge technologies and outdated myths divide us from nature, Dorian seeks to reunify us with it.

Dorian’s artistic influences include Jacques Lecoq (physical theatre), Thomas Prattki (devised theatre, embodied dramaturgy), Mummenschanz (physical theatre/mask), Complicité/THE ENCOUNTER (spatial audio), Jim Henson (edutainment, puppetry), Carolena Nericcio (improvisational choreography), and Davina Porter (voice acting).
