About me
Beginnings & Curiosity
I am a multimedia artist working through dance, sound, and atmosphere. My practice explores how subtle, suggestive information—delivered through body and sound—can awaken something deep within the viewer: igniting imagination, memory, sensation, or dream. My aim is to move you—inside and outside of the skin.
My eclectic approach and innate curiosity inspire me to intuitively explore the liminal space between physical creativity and music production—an area that has always captivated me. I’m passionate about creative processes, and draw inspiration from concepts of liminality, transmutation, electronic music, modular synthesizers and Japanese aesthetics.
“Rooted in dance, my work reaches beyond form into feeling, texture, and resonance”
The Turning Point
Rooted in dance, my work reaches beyond form into feeling, texture, and resonance. Over three decades, I have worn many hats—dancer, choreographer, rehearsal director, teacher, artistic advisor—and through these lenses, I’ve come to understand choreography as more than shaping bodies in space. It is about shaping perception, attention, and inner vibration.
Sound has fascinated me since childhood. I played with cassettes, synths, and voice recordings—treating sound as a physical, malleable material, much like movement.
This early curiosity became intensely personal in 2009, when a severe knee injury changed everything. The sound of my patella dislocating echoed through my body, turning me into a resonant box—an amplifier of frequency, disruption, and transformation. That rupture wasn’t an end, but a redefinition: revealing sound as internal movement, and movement as vibration.
“Choreography, for me, is not a fixed method or technique—it’s a living question”
This fracture was a turning point. It introduced a heightened sensitivity to my work, and, in a world increasingly fractured by polarization, it reinforced a core question in my practice: How do we move through rupture? It also deepened my curiosity about choreography—not just as structure or form, but as a question in itself. A way of noticing. A way of listening. A way of being in relation.
Current Practice & Vision
Since 2020, my work has ventured deeper into sound—into resonance, vibration, and listening as acts of choreography. I treat sound as movement, as performer, and the body as a vessel that listens, filters, distorts, and radiates vibration. By nurturing imagination and creative freedom through the interplay of sound and movement, I explore new sonic landscapes and embodied expressions as pathways to alternative realities.
“Can imagination become a space of resistance—of transformation?”
My recent work emerges from fragments—textures, pulses, rhythms, voices—that serve as suggestive cues, inviting each viewer to build their own internal landscape. These pieces don’t represent emotion; they compose sensation: porous environments where body and sound merge, and meaning remains open yet intentionally guided.
“How can sound move us—before meaning, beyond language, through the body?”
That’s the choreography I care about. That’s what I want to share.
