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 on the quest for the hidden, true self—a search for light in 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 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 may we finally find who we really are.
