What is Dance, you ask? Dance is ephemeral. You have to be there.

During precious free time, Jessica Williams has had the pleasure of presenting choreography in various venues throughout NYC including Dance New Amsterdam, Triskelion Arts and the DUMBO Dance Festival.

By coinciding chance with pre-determined repetition, her work illustrates the dialectics of free will versus destiny.
