Featured Work
ALIENS
KINAJ is thrilled to share a new enticing work, in collaboration with Toronto Dance Theatre for a double bill.
ALIENS explores the metaphysical experience on earth through the eyes of space immigrants. Navigating Disconnection and Connection, we observe the stories of 3 beings who search for their acceptance, visibility, and freedom
"KINAJ are incredibly conscientious artists - they design versatile and thoughtful movements to highlight stories and spread messages in order to uplift humanity and the communities they come in contact with."
