• Decision making Through objects and some body parts
  Video which in an artistic way shows different decision making processes through several objects and some body parts.
• Me as the Door
  In the image, you can see me engaging in an additional task where I tried to embody the door itself. I’m wearing a light blue, flower-patterned dress, with a subtle touch of red — a hint of temptation, inviting curiosity about what lies beneath, yet only visible to those allowed to see. Through this embodiment, I wanted to explore the idea of boundaries — what is revealed, what is hidden, and who decides who may enter.
• The Door
  I came across these abandoned doors while working on the task about signs that tell us how to behave or what to do. On these old doors, there are two signs — one in Latvian and one in Russian — both reading “No entry for unauthorized persons.” The doors are in poor condition, covered in rust, slowly overtaken by nature. It made me think: this sign once kept unauthorized people out, and now, there are no authorized people left to enter at all.

• The post-political body
  This video is a reflection on the movement of fat (adipose tissue) - research for my upcoming performance on “politics of wobble”, while observing textures and movements in nature and online. I am curious to explore some aspects of the body that are heavily politicized, thus cutting both the perception and the imagination. I’m interested to instead listen at the phenomenological, somatic and metaphysical level: a descent that perhaps could generate clues and speculations for healing the collective body.
• The body politic variations in the city
  This file shows a collage of 10 images created in urban environments, exploring the theme of unusual positions and movements in everyday life. The pictures were taken during the improvisation set.
• Signs for the body
  Our environment is littered with signs requiring us to act in a certain way. I spent a long walk paying attention to the different signs that impact our body in public spaces.

• Tentacular Reflection Cards
  After the first residency week I sat down for a reflection session with myself using Dixit cards to reverberate some concepts that we co-created while talking about our visions of our future horizontal collaboration and while thinking about my own desire in dance. The reflection went like picking a card, seeing if it evokes a memory of the week or using my notes to find connections and in case it echoed, I labeled it with a concept.
• (RE)presen(T)ce
  With this drawing, I tried to place myself and future viewers into the matrix of my curiosity, passion about dance.
• Pathdodance
  This is a drawing of the most memorable moments of my path to dance. The task was proposed in search for our relation to dance by Anna Szepes.
• Dickpong experiment_Body Politics
  In a personal research I was in the working duett of investigating provocative movement patterns, gaze, public space presence and gender expectations. For the first part we dived into learning different twerk moves and later at home reading up on the history of twerking. Later performing booty shakes while keeping eye-contact with the audience to investigate vulnerability, control, provocation and liberation. Paralelly i watched tutorial videos of how to behave and move in a masculine way (highly misogyneous content originally aimed at men willing to perform control, masculinity, confidence, power and ‘alfa energy’ in everyday situations) We did an experiment in which we performed twerking for our colleagues in the studio and directly after entering a public space to transform and exist with alfa male energy and our bodies led us to the discovery of our new favourite sport: dickpong.
• Dickpong practice: On body politics
  In a working duet we were investigating provocative movement patterns, gaze, public space presence and gender expectations. Besides experimenting with twerking while keeping eye-contact with the audience - to investigate vulnerability, control, provocation and liberation -, we also invented dickpong, the game displayed on the video.
