'My fascination lies in the observation of intra-human relating beyond words and socio-cultural conventions. I am always wondering if communication is actually possible, and if dancing might be a way.
In my artistic practice I work a lot with Improvisation, as it seems to me to be the 'the technique of life', for all our technical tools and skills are useless if we can't spontaneously apply and use them to our advantage in a given situation or context.
This investigation is also reflected in my specialization in Argentine Tango, whose improvisation-technique allows an incredible subtle yet very precise communication between the partners; also, the reflections on gender, roles and identity that the observation of its physical mechanisms allow, keep me fascinated.
This has led me to numerous intercultural and interdisciplinary cooperations, always investigating the interactions of two different parts (interactions of bodies from different cultures, movement and sound, movement and visual arts...), as I see the friction created by differences as an incredible source of potential and innovation.'
Established since 2015 in the European and South American scene as a choreographer and performer, she has realized over 15 scenic works and interdisciplinary collaborations, which have been shown in over 20 countries on 4 continents.
She feels equally at ease on conventional stages as in unconventional spaces and site specific settings.
Her unique selling point is the fusion of contemporary dance techniques with Argentine Tango, as well as the general combination of different (dance) languages - e.g. sign language - which is reflected in the intercultural and interdisciplinary approaches of her productions.
