About the show

Using the body as my medium, I explore life and identity. I try to find my own place within the crowd and let go of unnecessary labels. I want to break down a disciplined body and cross its boundaries to discover a comfortable, natural way of dancing. We twist and tighten ourselves, hoping to become completely clear. We may spiral upwards in growth, but we can also spiral downwards, without knowing where life will take us. Every exploration helps me untie my inner knots. I long for a bright future, but I also fear the hardships there might be.
