Miami, FL – September 15, 2021 – From September 16-19, the Adrienne Arsht Center hosted the sold-out world premiere performance of Birds of Paradise, a series of dance-based queer solo portraits and an ensemble piece which explore the themes of agency, survival and transformation. Created by the Arsht Center’s Artist-in-Residence Pioneer Winter and commissioned by the Arsht Center, Birds of Paradise confronts our notions of dance by exploring movement with people of varied physical ability, body type, gender identity, race, ethnicity and experiences. The new work features interwoven filmed and live dance performance.
