Dance Artist
Based in Berlin since 2020 I work in the field of Performing Art as freelance dance performer and choreographer. I engage in collaborations across Europe in both independent and institutional structures.
Through my choreographic practice, I explore concepts related to desires, whether directed toward something specific or aimed at a state of being, and their relationship to the body, movement, and emotions.
