About
“I start from myself. I face my contradictions and from there I try to connect with others. I believe that any creative process happens in collaboration with people who contrast with my personal-creative vision, and then come together at a meeting and exchange point.
As a creator, I am interested in communication and scenic dialogue, and its articulation through the body.For this reason, I direct my focus towards the different qualities of the public-interpreter relationship.
It moves me to deepen and always look for new possibilities, including voice as one more limb, the body in constant reset.
I´m constantly looking for new audiences, new reactions, new connections, which give me new feed-backs, to continue creating and developing, I am looking for harmony and discordance, I find them equally revealing and fascinating. For me it is about exposing balance and symmetry or lack thereof, in our daily existence. ”
