About this Show
Curated by J CHEN PROJECT’s Artistic Director Jessica Chen, “TRANSLATE (the voices of dance)” is a performance series giving choreographers an opportunity to explore their voice and perform their work. Selected artists are invited to a salon to dance and discuss the necessary tools needed to build their foundation in making and promoting their work.

J CHEN PROJECT is a modern dance company based in NYC, founded in 2008. The mission of J CHEN PROJECT is to start an artistic conversation. It begins in the imagination of the artist, stretches onto the stage and lives on in those that witnessed the performance. We strive to accomplish this through performances, salons, mentoring, curating and inspiring artists to share their voice.
