My themes in my work are transformation, life and connection. 
As a performing artist, a creator and a teacher, I would love to focus on transformation not only physically, but mentally, emotionally, energetically and spiritually. I would like to create a work which comes from deep inside of us; something that awakens us, something like a screaming of our souls, and I embrace the raw and authentic expressions coming from our bodies. No matter who we are, and where we are from - I believe these primal voices have the vibrancy that resonate us to connect, and I hope that lead us to understand each other in the deep level. ​I would love to share my heart to connect with others in the world. 
​I am very intrigued and interested in the relationship between human beings & nature, physical expression & its possibilities, and how our work will reflect the society we live in now. I use our bodies to explore, express, and share our voices. The primal art forms I use are Butoh, Theatre and visual arts, and I am open to collaborate with any other arts forms existing. 
Butoh awakens my soul; Butoh guides me to what I am.
