Choreography

  Dava’s compositions stem from a hyperrealist lens that grounds the viewers in a space that feels familiar, such as a train station, cave, living room, etc. before delving into an intricate exploration of time, space, and mood. Her compositions challenge conventional notions, weaving elements of realism with an underlying sense of instability to invite audiences to reconsider their perceptions. As a choreographer Dava she has received commissions from Whim W’Him Dance Company, Dance Lab New York, Yale University's Summer Drama Cabaret, Peridance Certificate Program Graduation Solo, and worked as an associate choreographer with Laja Martin for Gibney Pro. Dava was honored as the first Springboard Danse Montreal nominated recipient of Jonah Bokaer's Arts Foundation AIR Founder's Residency in 2021 and was among the first round of choreographic artists for Gallim's Moving Women residency in 2020.
