Triptych Figures
We've quite the hodge podge of backgrounds and personalities, but we believe like triptych art we were meant to be viewed together, whether in dance or collaboration. We are excited to combine our experience and training to put out new works. Whether on our own, or with local artists we hope to constantly Create, Collab, Act
