Moriah Evans (b. 1980, Springfield, Ohio, USA) is a New York-based choreographer whose work approaches choreography as a speculative, genre-defying, sociocultural process. Drawing from somatic practices and feminist critiques of visuality, her work challenges conventional perceptions of dance by emphasizing the experiences the body feels that cannot be seen. Through this lens, she reimagines relationships between flesh, body, self, and subject, often engaging with the affective and material interior of the body to generate movement. Evans’ multifaceted practice spans site-specific performances, theatrical productions, participatory museum installations, symposia, theoretical writing, and curatorial projects. Her work pushes the boundaries of choreography, inviting audiences to engage with dance in expanded and unconventional ways. She holds an M.A. in Art History, Theory, and Criticism from the University of California, San Diego (2004–2007), and a B.A. in Art History and English from Wellesley College (1997–2001), where she graduated magna cum laude as a Durant Scholar. Evans has been recognized with numerous awards and fellowships, including Dance/NYC Advancement Fund Fellow (2025–2026); Hodder Fellow at Princeton University (2023–2024); John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellow in Choreography (2022); Foundation for Contemporary Arts Emergency Grant (2021); Jerome Hill Artist Fellowship, Jerome Foundation – Runner-Up (2021).
