blindsight artistic director paige starling sorvillo is a choreographer and improvising performing artist based in Oakland, California.  sorvillo’s works are impulsed by specific images and/or obstructions, fragments of text, and emotional/physical states while her performative dialect is deeply influenced by her work in Japanese Butoh dance, Ruth Zaporah’s Action Theater and western contemporary dance.
