ABOUT

Originally from Memphis, Tn Wombwell has been creating dances for over forty years. She found her true choreographic voice after exposure to the post-modern choreographers, the philosophy of John Cage and movement improvisation. These ideas found expression in her company, DeadFall Dance, from 2008-2016. Wombwell ran the dance program at Phillips Academy in Andover, Ma from 1995-2020, where she continues to teach choreograph and direct. She is grateful to all the companies and dancers that she has called family over the years. She has worked with many visual artists over the course of her career and her choreography has been shown at the Addison Gallery of American Art, the Essex Art Center, and the Boston Center for the Arts. She started working with paper in 2008 creating a wax paper dress to be used for a costume. Her visual art has been shown in the Galatea Gallery in Boston, Ma, the All Gallery and the Whistler Gallery in Lowell Ma. Wombwell maintains an art studio in Shelburne Falls Ma where she practices origami. In addition, Wombwell is currently pursuing a M. Ed. in Leadership for Social Justice at BC with a goal to use her experience in the arts to work toward more equitable and just societal and educational systems.
