Tiffany Mills is "making a name for herself as a young modern-dance innovator" (New York Times). Her work favors visceral movement, where vivid partnering plays a prime role in elucidating human relations. In her crafted world of gesture, touch, and shifting form, Mills' dancers reveal complex emotions through unfolding relationships. The Tiffany Mills Company strikes a nerve - triggered by instinct - driven out of raw physicality.
The Company's recent projects merge movement, music and visuals, investigating collaboration across mediums. Through set and improvised material the Company tests the boundaries of the senses.
"LandFall holds the eye.Ms. Mills stands out interpreting her own movement. She and Jeffrey Duval engage in an intimate tug of war, continuing the evening's contact improvisation aesthetic but deepening it with unstated, moody emotions."
"The dancers lacerate and twist, a sextet of hounded, fabulously- dressed sophisticates locked in a war of nerves. There are intriguing ambiguities here: the line between assailant and savior blurred in a frenzied grapple, the crawl that appears to hover."
