Instagram: @zoryaarrow "Arrow is a master devised but also an artist that is not defined by genre or medium."
"Arrow's work is generous in the way it pulls from differing mediums with such freedom. Clown, dance, theatre, devised theatre performance art are just some of the tools she has available to her." "I was moved, and I still am when I think back to visceral feelings I had from watching (Arrow’s) story spoken through the body." -Jean Borbridge, Public Parking, Nov 2018 |
"There’s so many ways you can know something, and that can get really confusing when one part of you knows something and the other part of you knows something else, and maybe they don’t work together."
-Zorya Arrow, in interview with Michelle Panting, FULL Magazine, May 2017 CV
