About the Artists
Tiffany Mills and the NYC-based Tiffany Mills Company (founded in 2000) has created over 20 works performed nationally and internationally with a “fearless sense of freedom and exhilaration” (Washington Post). Mills’ process of creation is collaborative, ensemble-based, and multidisciplinary. She collaborates to blur lines between mediums and to discover layered methods of constructing dances. In 2019, the company will premiere Endless Shapes at The Flea Theater as an “Anchor Partner” and will tour to PA, NJ, TX, HI, and Russia. Past performance highlights: BAM Fisher, LaMaMa Dance Festival, Danspace Project’s City/Dans Series, and Baryshnikov Arts Center Residency, among others.

She completed her BFA in Dance in 2018, graduating summa cum laude with a concentration in composition. More recently, Emilee created Spare/Change Dance Company, a Queens-based dance company that she looks forward to expanding in order to share her work throughout New York City.

At Mason Gross, she has had the opportunity to perform repertory by Yvonne Rainer, Christian Von Howard, Chien-Ying Wang, John Evans, Cleo Mack, and Blair Ritchie. Salzano draws her inspiration from her own experiences as a female millennial to develop unique contemporary dance, each piece existing in it’s own atmosphere. Her work has been presented throughout New York City. Salzano’s award winning dance films have also been presented across the United States.
