The Pic PAC - Pictor Performing Arts Collective
The Pic PAC is a Brooklyn-based collaborative, modern dance-theatre company under the artistic direction of Colleen Pictor. The Pic PAC has been presented at ArtHouse as part of the YourMove Dance Festival, Triskelion Arts Center, Two River Theater, The Tank, the Legros Cultural Arts Women in Dance Series, and The Hatch Presenting Series. This September, the Pic PAC will tour to upstate New York to be a part of the Rochester Fringe Festival.
Colleen Pictor, the founder and resident choreographer, is a summa cum laude graduate of Rutgers University’s Mason Gross School of the Arts. She is the recipient of the Margery Turner Choreography Award as well as the Colonel Henry Rutgers Research Scholar Award for her work. Currently, Colleen is a part of the inaugural cohort of Lincoln Center Scholars. Colleen’s work, often interdisciplinary in nature, emphasizes the juxtaposition of full bodied, space-devouring movement with intricate, precise, quirky gestures. It explores the importance of facial expression within performance (both staged performance and the performance of identity that occurs in everyday circumstances). The Pic PAC focuses on dancers as humans rather than as moving figures or divine beings.
