Performance makes the hidden side of my personality shine true. Its a sacred space for the body, mind and soul to just be in moment, in the flow, to be present.

Before every performance I do affirmations and breathing exercises to calm my mind and 

it's also clearing my thoughts. 

– What was the best performance you have done so far? Why?

My performance at KMD at my bachelor was the most important performance for me, because in that moment I was liberating myself form the disbelief that I was not able to do to do this kind of expression. 

The performance was a ritual where I did sacred injections to 5 ceramic objects that was formed out of the elements; fire, water, earth and air. The ceramic objects was bind with purpose to heal those whom was in is present, the objects where working as a spiritual tool. 

– Are you currently working on any performance?

At the this moment I am developing a performance around how to become a more authentic version of one self. I am going to create some sound elements, and connect the nature and somatic body movements into to the project.

If performance is something you want to work with you should listen to that voice inside. 

The performance community is very loving and including.
