Honors Concert: Nadia Piecyk

From the venue:

2025–2026 Emory Dance
Free, No Tickets Required

Emory Dance major Nadia Piecyk’s research is grounded in a view of disability as inherently queer. Her honors thesis project investigates how the body-centricity of disability and queerness disrupts normative hierarchies that privilege mind over body and stability over fluidity. Both disability and queerness are subject to external scrutiny, medicalization, and societal expectations of performance, yet both challenge normative expectations of embodiment and identity, existing in the liminal space between visibility and invisibility. Given that queerness and disability are both so “bodied,” how do hypervisibility and invisibility show up on the stage? 

Recommended parking for Schwartz Center events is the Fishburne Parking Deck (free for events after 6 p.m. and on weekends).
