song talked to me (practise) This week we worked in the space with my proposition of the song It’s Probably Me, originally created by Sting. We were also listening to an interpretation by Gregory Porter. We tried different exercises, observing how the song moves us naturally and what appears in us while listening. By playing with listening and with changes in our attitudes towards it, I tried to develop a simple task-proposition for someone else -"song talked to me" This relates to how songs can communicate with us and how our attitude while listening shapes what we receive.

Who am I to talk about body politics? An essay about this topic with images…
* Who am I to have anything to say about body politics?
* Is there anything to talk about with my own body in my work that feels relevant or that I have something new to say?
* Do I even have anything to say?
* How do I feel about what my body represents in the world, in the dance world, in rural Wales?

The political body or the body politic A collection of moments captured around a rural town - Brecon/Aberhonddu. Meetings with the laughing biker, being manhandled, being lifted out of shop, a guy whose jaw dropped to the floor, some public tenderness and teenagers being open to something unusual outside a Gregg’s.

Urgent, what is urgent? Our visual recount of how we worked to create tasks - moving, writing, moving, writing, find a task! Too many ideas and contributions. What was the decision making process, we suggested, we danced, we worked through our bodies.

Without dance we wouldn’t exist We need to raise the status of dance. We know it and recognise it but do others know it and value it. We know that there is huge value in the intelligence and the knowledge of dancers but do others? What are people missing (besides not having dance in their lives) when they do not move?

The reality is… (full) The full map of our collective decision making process, funnels and receptacles with bottlenecks of ideas, histories and approaches. It suggests that there is space although tight to disagree and to be brutal, to agree and to converge. It is a continuum…

The reality of pouring water as a dance metaphor In the second week of the project we were as to make a choreography of objects that describes how we came to making a collective creative choreographic decision. With funnels and receptacles as the collective gathering and water as our individual histories, stories, approaches and methods.

Time Shifter In this exploration I play with the relationship between real and edited time. Linking fast paced expressive movement to sliw motion in video and slow or chopped movement quality to regular time. While different, both segments require an attention to detail as the slow speed of viewing focuses the audience attention into everything much more accutely.

Why do we dance? I had so many questions about myself. I was wondering, well questioning why I had selected myself for the project, why now - it was available to me right now, but why me and not give space - I need to be making, exploring, trying, dancing, thinking about dance in the sense of the doing if not the making space for it to happen by others.

Dance is necessary Dance matters to us, it has for a long time. There is an urgency to what we do and how we do it.

Moving on the same beat We immersed ourselves in a transformative exploration of body politics at the Nordisk Teater Laboratorium. This week was a meeting of hearts, minds, and cultures. We had the honour of welcoming a vibrant group from Vesthimmerland Asylcenter in Holstebro, uniting individuals from diverse corners of the world in a shared creative space. Our starting point was simple, yet profound: whose body, and whose politics? What stories do our bodies carry, and what histories shape their movement?
Through dance, music, and spontaneous improvisation, we began to unravel those questions—not just with our words, but with our breath, rhythm, and shared silence. Despite our different origins, we found ourselves moving to the same beat, standing on common ground. The studio turned into a living, breathing lab—its walls alive with sketches, writings, and reflections that gave shape to our evolving dialogue.
We discovered that body politics isn’t a fixed concept—it’s a living, pulsing space where identity, emotion, and voice collide. It is where mixed heritages become strength, and where being seen and heard becomes a radical act of connection.
In that week, we didn’t just explore—we resonated. We listened deeply, moved with purpose, and created something beyond language: a collective vibration of presence, courage, and unity.
Besides images and videos and texts, we made a special playlist, where you can access the emotions and dynamics we have been processing and including in our own bodies, minds and souls the whole week.

Imaginary a tech rider imagines technology not as support, but as a living body inside the performance. Set in a dark, warehouse-like space, projections, surround sound, scaffolding structures, water, light, and bodies merge to create an immersive environment where the audience moves freely through shifting atmospheres. High-lumen projectors, quadraphonic sound, AI motion-capture suits, and large-scale scenography transform the space into a sensorial landscape, allowing the work to breathe, react, and evolve over six hours of durational experience.

Personal Free Writing and Pictures On Friday, 25 April 2025, I woke up at the Nordisk Theater Laboratorium residency place and noticed the butterfly stickers on the wall of my room. There, i started free writing as a conclusion for the whole week, reflecting on bodies and politics.
