Reference to the region: 

St. Gallen = place of residence and work

Motivation to participate in ChoreoLab:

Taking part in the Choreolab by Tanz Plan Ost is an opportunity to connect, share experiences and create a dialogue with other participants, as well as nurture and think my engagement and work from a new viewpoint both as a performer and choreographer.

Artistic lines of enquiry /topic I am working on:

The core subject of my work are women and the female body. I explore the dimensions of womanhood, the questions of social performance of genders and its bias, together with a search about the sense of belongingness through cross cultural identity exploration and the body's search to connectedness.
