Zeva oelbaum biography of williams

Recently, I sat down (virtually) to hear a bit more about my wonderfully talented friend, Zeva Oelbaum's new project. May years back, Zeva and I collaborated on a textile line for Pallas using some of Zeva’s gorgeous cyanotypes as inspiration for weaves and pattern. Since then Zeva has continued working as a still photographer, but has expanded into film and creating some very impactful documentaries. She often focuses on telling the stories of ground-breaking women in history.

She is currently working on a documentary that I am most excited to see. It is about the groundbreaking dancer, Loïe Fuller. Join us in our conversation to learn a bit more about this often overlooked icon in modern dance as well as Zeva’s background!
