Jammerzine has an exclusive interview with multi-mega artists Athena Hiotis and Caitlin Grace Rose. While both have collaborated on Prism Wave’s return to form in the, well, form of their new video for the track titled ‘Running’, it takes the minds of two vastly different, yet like-minded artists and melds, molds, and mentors skills and talents into a fusion of utopia and dystopia through the muse of feeling and emotion done in a way that only true artists can convey.
This is the type of art that can only come from true artists, not interested in anything but the finished art. I wish that more artists were like this. Not trying to make anything that appeals to the mainstream while inadvertently doing so. This is what creates a brand, by the way. Deft of artistic feeling and void of commercialism, ‘Running’, and the bulk of the work that Athena and Caitly perform and create, are based on this premise. This is what makes me an admirer as much as a fan.
In this interview, I get to talk to both about that and much more, as well as the future and basis of both, and how inspiration takes hold and becomes motivation.
About Prism Waves
Prism Waves (formally RÊVE) is the crisp air of a midnight drive, like you are riding the waves of a dream. This four-piece group has distinctly fused their take on indie rock with an intense and ethereal performance, featuring stunning visuals and visceral emotions. Their lush arrangements, dynamic rhythms, and infectious melodies bring you to a dreamscape you’d swear you’ve never been to before but somehow faintly remember.
About Caitlin Grace Rose
Caitlin Rose, movement artist and Baltimore native, has been teaching and making art for over twelve years. She received her MFA degree from the University of Arizona and is a comprehensively certified instructor in Pilates, Barre, and yoga. She currently serves as faculty in the dance department at Grand Canyon University, teaching technique and research courses, and also serves as a recruitment and guest artist liaison.
Caitlin creates in both the commercial dance & concert dance communities. She is traditionally a narrative-style storyteller who explores anthropological themes that strive to engage with diverse communities. Her current choreographic research strives to explore classical jazz technique through a culturally relevant lens. Caitlin also hopes to further interdisciplinary relationships by working with other artists to create a rich foundation with which to deliver an impactful experience onstage.
In her free time, Caitlin enjoys hiking, yoga, and Pilates. She loves coffee and chocolate, and often pairs them together.
