Description of general work / practice

The last few years I have been involved in creating solo choreographies- performances, and my work focuses on my personal experiences, stories, and emotions as well as on that of other people. Through the choreographic process, I aim to bring suppressed emotions to the surface and project them. At the same time, my work has been seen as a way of protesting for social issues. Through exploration of the body, movements, voice, sound, directorial presence, the humorous side of human existence and self-sarcasm. Further, I aim to find a different way of approaching choreographies, in order to be more direct to the audience.
