Perspectives

  • My approach is performative, somatic, and (an) archival.

  • Doing-feeling-thinking: my research stems from embodied practices as a source of knowledge. 

  • Affections and moves

  • Situated knowledge

  • I stand for self-publishing and maker spaces.

  • I believe in collaborative work and interdisciplinary creation.

  • I am interested in process philosophy and poetics of relation.

  • Due to my experience in different theatre troupes, I learned about practices focused on developing research and creative processes for, in, and within public spaces and non-conventional stages.
