Rainey Scarborough is a New York City-based movement artist, choreographer, photographer and yoga instructor. Hailing from the Appalachian region of North Carolina, her roots are deeply intertwined with the region’s rich culture and natural magic, which inspires much of her work. A graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill, Rainey’s art seamlessly blends dance, visual storytelling, and narrative to delve into the emotional landscapes of connection, intimacy, and transformation. She has additionally studied at the American Dance Festival and holds a 200-hour yoga certification from the Asheville Yoga Center.
As the founder of Conjure Arts Collective, Rainey creates multi-disciplinary performances and community events that not only push the boundaries of performance, art, dance, and film but also foster a spirit of collaboration and support for emerging artists.
Rainey is available for assignments, commissions, and collaborations worldwide.
