My work is my adventurer’s journal.
To me the process is part of the performance, the performance part of the process.
When creating, I like to do as much as I can by myself.
The practical obstacles often become an impulse for the artistic process.
My roots are in breakdance,
and the body in motion is a key element in my work.
I am drawn to use performance theatre as a way to conduct meditative-like exercises.
How can a state of meditation provoke imagination,
to shape new perspectives on our human lives.
I hope you question my theories.
As I believe it is our exchange that matters- not who is stating the facts.
For me there is no separation between you and I.
We both are particles of the same phenomenon; that what we call Life.
To find out I’m wrong means to sink into a greater level of understanding.
I believe truth is not to be held,
but to be chased infinitely.
As a collective game for us to enjoy
during our ongoing movement on this spinning earth.
