Creating and performing is a personal offering - I invite the audience to witness and also participate in this artistic transformation. My choreographic and personal research is a response to and resistance against an increasingly consumerist, ‘plastic’ society, it focuses around the quest for the hidden, true self, it is a search for light onto the nefarious corners of the human soul, a quest for the forgotten poesy of life. As a choreographer and performer I convert a more private, confessional diary-like writing into a physical act in order to explore tender, silent or more resonant inflections of the self.
Move- ability and e- motion do not know borders.
Movement not only as a physical term, but also as a geographical, political and social term.
Only inside movement we may finally find who we really are.
