Artistic Statement.
Tiffany Bierly is a dance educator, choreographer, and performer from Central Pennsylvania. Her fascination with the human body began in fourth grade when she had her first anatomy lesson. Ever since, she has continued her exploration of the body through the study of kinesiology and dance. As an artist she is fascinated by the connections within us, to other people and to our environment. Human beings are constantly affecting or being affected by events occurring around us and by people in our lives. Bierly’s work investigates these intricate connections and how they contribute to the formation of identity.
