Kanach’s costume designs interrogate clothing not only as adornment, but for its narrative and cultural potential. Working with custom-printed fabrics, thrifted materials, and everyday objects, she creates work that “lives at the intersection of costume, textiles, installation, and performance.” Kanach has collaborated across cabaret, theater, opera, and dance. She is a co-founder and resident costume designer of The Bearded Ladies Cabaret and a company member of Lightning Rod Special.
