I am intrigued by somatic approaches in choreographic processes and how a shared experience emerges between the performer and the viewer, wherein inter-subjective experiences are transmitted through many micro-movements at deeper levels. 

 

I work with ecosomatics and touch-based practices, through which I examine the relationship between being human and more-than-human. I explore the experiences of commonality, disorientation, liminality, and transformation, where the body's subtleties, tragedies, desires, predicaments, rapture, and inexplicability are in conversation. I view touch as an opportunity to create a more egalitarian way of coexisting with all beings, the ability of touch to enhance empathy and influence the way we move. I research how empathy can be experienced through corporeality and cultivated through kinesthetic thinking and how embodied empathy affects ecological and social justice.
