My intention as a choreographer and dancer is to find a way to share the experience of dance in a manner that makes it accessible to the audience, while preserving its mysterious quality – something that cannot be fully conveyed through explanatory words, but must be perceived through other senses.
In my practice, I explore the relationship between dance, memory, and imagination, with a focus on themes such as loss, individual and collective memory, intergenerational trauma, as well as grief and care.
My primary method is dance based on scores: short texts that serve as guidelines for improvisation and as core elements of choreography. I often collaborate with sound artists – both to create works together and to develop a new expression across genres.
I like to think about my projects as extending beyond the individual production and evolve over time through various forms.
