In January 2020, CalArts Center for New Performance's 2020-21 Resident Artist Daniel Alexander Jones met up with two next-generation artists and students at CalArts—performer/playwright Sarahjeen François and designer/performance artist Amy Chiao.

A critically acclaimed playwright, essayist, performer and musician, Jones goes deep into Black American and Queer Performance traditions, exploring the power of Afromysticism and demonstrating an unwavering commitment to healing, compassionate truth-telling, and collective critical engagement.
