William Franco and Miki Seifert are the co-founders and artistic directors of With Lime, an artist collective that creates performances, installations and projections that explore the interface between cultures and/or technology. As part of their vision of the arts as a force for personal and societal transformation, they conduct research to expand performative methodologies and practices. Franco and Seifert’s artistic multilinguality allows the work of With Lime to cross the borders between visual, media, dance and theatre arts. With Lime’s work has been in galleries, museums and film festivals around the world.

During their Residency, Franco and Seifert will continue their project Azucar/Sugar, which explores the connection between the globalization of sugar and colonization. Drawn toward this work through Franco's Zapotec and Mixtec culture, they are interested in researching Savannah's history of refining sugar, and Georgia’s role in the sugar industry in the Americas. As their Residency project will align with Dia de Muertos, they will create an ofrenda with sugar skulls in the Residency studio.
