"selfie-sh" was inspired by a meditation text and a Sylvia Plath poem.
"It is the shattered the broken inside of us that makes us perfect"
(haiku by unknown)
"Self-hatred and self-love are equally self-centred"
(Mason Cooley)
Competitive Plasticity
premier: 2016
produced by: Rambert Choreographic Platform
length: 7 minutes
Brain: Factory of dreams /Electrochemical Stew / Neverending buzz.
This piece plays with the idea of how our mind functions
– from generating thoughts and transmitting messages
to the internal battle we have with our subconscious mind.
Competitive plasticity refers to fact that the brain is adaptive
— it self-organizes, meaning that if exercised appropriately
it can adapt and change depending on individual needs.
Competitive Plasticity was selected to participate in the International Choreography Competition in June, 2016 in Hanover, Germany.
Angels
premier: 2018
length: 8 minutes
produced by: Rambert - In the Making Platform
"I have to meet god. I want to ask him a few things.
For example what is our purpose. Because we build our houses, raise our children, harvest our wheat, fight wars, kill each other.
But for what end?
And well, I want to ask him also about my life. I want to find out the truth."
