JADE DEWI TYAS TUNGGAL is an Australian Javanese dance artist, performance maker, creative collaborator and teacher. She studied classical ballet, modern dance, improvisation, yoga and martial arts in Sydney, Miami and New York City. Jade Dewi has a Bachelor of Dance Honours from NWSA at Florida University, a Masters of Choreography with High Distinction from VCA at Melbourne University and was a Darmasiwsa scholar studying Indonesian Dance at University of the Arts Yogakarta, Java. Her experience making works during international choreographic residencies and global interarts research projects influences her youth dance company choreographic commissions and intensive cultural exchanges in remote communities. She has collaborated with many dance companies, choreographers, directors, composers, music ensembles and independent artists. Her solo performance work has toured Australia and recieved numerous awards. ARTIST STATEMENT My performance making is concerned with the voice of the dancing body intersecting art ritual with ecology, identity, spirituality and collective memory. Exploring the sonic and motion biorhythms of cognitive embodiment - the brain in the body in nature - my performances and their traces evoke themes of power, transformation, shadow, reflection and energetic exchange. www.jadedewi.com AWARDS / GRANTS 2016 Individual Artist Grant Arts NSW 2015 Arts projects Grant Australia Council for the Arts 2013 ArtStart Grant Australia Council for the Arts 2013 Shortlisted for Outstanding Independent Dance Australian Dance Awards 2013 Quick Response Grant Arts NSW 2012 Facets Choreography Residency India Critical Path, Arts NSW 2012 Best Dance Award Melbourne Fringe Festival 2012 New Work -
