: : : ABOUT US : : :
The Pillow Project is a dance company seeking to become the vanguard on Pittsburgh's East End
for compelling artistic collaborations and experimentations by intriguing local artists and new audiences
with our casual dance/art happenings and innovative, full-length performance installations.We utilize vivid, multimedia imagery and visually-percussive choreography
to physicalize thought-provoking concepts and engage in abstract conversations with our audiences.
Committed to crafting original ideas that directly translate an audio experience into a full visual experience, we are a creative hub in Pittsburgh that encompasses many diverse artistic mediums under a revolving central idea or theme, combining each other’s talents to develop conceptually interesting and complete presentations.
Through our unique hybrid of art and performance work, The Pillow Project, led by artistic director Pearlann Porter, is focused on developing a stronger awareness of, and increased interest in, the arts in Pittsburgh by offering something relevant and approachable to audiences otherwise unfamiliar with the cultural aspect of our city - while still offering something artistically challenging and emotionally provoking for the established artistic community.
We intend to increase our impact on Pittsburgh's cultural scene by constantly developing new performance-based multimedia art “happenings”, featuring stylistically unique and unifying collaborations, encompassing the many different artistic areas we house - taking the dreams off the pillow and making them a reality.
