SADI MOSKO
ABOUT
Sadi Mosko is a dancer and choreographer based between Idaho and New York City. Since 2016, she has been a collaborator with Colleen Thomas Dance, performing in multiple productions and venues around New York City. Sadi acted as a performer and rehearsal assistant for Thomas' Bessie-nominated work, light & desire, which premiered at New York Live Arts. Sadi's own choreography has been commissioned by organizations including CPR - Center for Performance Research, Columbia Ballet Collaborative, and Treefort Music Fest. In addition, Sadi has worked with Boise-based organizations like LED, Project Flux, Migration Theory, Idaho Dance Theatre, and Dance Boise, and she co-founded SilverMoss Dance Project, a platform for the works she creates in collaboration with Carolyn Silverman.
Originally from Boise, Sadi graduated magna cum laude from Columbia University with B.A. degrees in both dance and sustainable development. At Columbia, through the Barnard College Department of Dance, she studied with artists such as Twyla Tharp, Andrea Miller, and Jodi Melnick and performed works by Sasha Waltz, Kevin Wynn, Shannon Gillen, Donna Uchizono, Loni Landon, and Alexandra Beller, among others. Additionally, Sadi has trained at multiple workshops and intensives in the United States, Europe, and Israel.
Outside of the studio, Sadi is a writer and editor with a passion for environmental sustainability. Her research paper, “Stepping Sustainably: The Potential Partnership Between Dance and Sustainable Development,” was published by the journal Consilience and presented as part of a gathering at the Dance Studies Association 2022 Conference in Vancouver, Canada. Read it here. In September 2024, she published a follow-up article in dancejournal/hk that reflects on her past research.

September 2024
In this article, Sadi reflects on her paper, Stepping Sustainably: The Potential Partnership Between Dance and Sustainable Development, and her experiences implementing those theories into her artistic practice. She discusses how her ideas about dance and its relationship to the environmental movement have impacted her choreographic works, and how these ideas have evolved. Ultimately, she questions why environmental work is necessary and what impact it can have on both the environmental movement and art itself.
