individual human (me)
If you are representing an organization, what kind of organization?
Founding Artist/Director of the Aquabatics Research Team initiative (ARTi) - a fluid organisation that morphs from sole trader to somewhat of a film production company to explore human performance potentials underwater - Sarah Jane Pell researches the choreographies, technologies and supports needed to create new works of live art from a point of complete saturation, immersion and positive pressure. ARTi was established by Pell in 2002 because she believed that working in partnership with multidisciplinary industries is more than managing resources and transfering skills, it is about aligning goals and objectives to bring about new research cultures, critical engagements and dynamic productions.
About Me (human/individual)/interests, work..short bio/ THis is the most important. It is the only way to know that you are not a SPAMBOT!Be generous!
