“I have been dancing since I was three years old – folk dance at first, then ballet, and finally contemporary dance. Over the years I have received a lot of advice on how to achieve better results. I have drastically forced the arch of my foot and my turnout wrapped myself in plastic wrap, meditated in front of candlelight, invented a middle name for myself, said “yes” to everything, and said “no” to everything. Dance has left both a physical and an emotional mark on me. What does my body think about it all?
“Where are you when I am sleeping” is a personal, at times an ironic conversation with my body about the way in which I live inside my body and the way in which my body lives inside me, and whether I am able to listen to my body. This solo performance is an attempt to let the body speak and to believe in itself once again. It is a self-portrait performance about the things that can no longer be retrieved and the new that has come in place of the old.”
