My body, my face, my eyes and my hands resemble me to the body, the face, the eyes and the hands of someone else. I commemorate. Iʼd like to talk and to be silent at the same time. I wish to be beautiful and ugly. To be fragile and strong so that I could tell my story. Pure story, no moral. I need attentive looks connect my own attentive look in order to be able to tell it. 

Iʼve been searching for such a dance language for my solo piece that requires extreme strength of the body with its strong physical attitude. During the work progress Iʼve used improvisational techniques as my primary tool so that my body could dictate this language.
