UP CLOSE UP CLOSE is a group performance that explores the shifting relationship between individuality and collectivity. Through constellations of bodies, proximity becomes a site of negotiation, where attention, rhythm, and gaze continuously reorganise. The choreography asks where strength emerges - from within, or in the moment we begin to move together. Informed by choreographic research at ArtEZ University of the Arts, the work is currently being developed and will be shared at the Alps Move Festival in October 2026. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/505256b0e4b020ebebdec896/8b4a998d-2a31-48f4-a378-4ce30296210b/DSC03290+Kopie.jpg Dance Choreography Research Dance Artist - CYCLIC BLISS 2023 - present https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/505256b0e4b020ebebdec896/8cc018eb-bfe0-4d78-9721-0c370b3fd8cd/2d021243-5f38-41ff-ba73-226772062a8d.png Dance Choreography Research Dance Artist - THE PRESENCE OF THE ABSENT 2025 - present https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/505256b0e4b020ebebdec896/c5521711-01e3-424d-af97-b660efbbd9bd/A3343448-6621-465C-85C2-02F455658F35.jpg Dance Choreography Research Dance Artist - UNDER THE SKIN 2021 - 2023 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/505256b0e4b020ebebdec896/1609148065483-VPF644T3548TFT47X1FE/Screen%2BShot%2B2018-08-09%2Bat%2B15.45.56.jpg Dance Choreography Research Dance Artist - STRIVE 2018 - 2020 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/505256b0e4b020ebebdec896/1609148147278-X1LI95KMDSEK9AKKGPNM/20247659_1744058699226907_5364504638816246480_o.jpg Dance Choreography Research Dance Artist - LOOK LOOK SOULSEARCHING MEDIA Look, site specific performance was first commissioned by Bolzano Danza in Italy, was further performed at 4bid gallery in OT 301 (NL), Mittelfest in Cividale (IT) and La Bequée Festival (FR).

The project transformed the alpine landscape into a living stage. Mountain climbers became performers, moving through the rocky terrain following a choreographic score across the mountains. Their movements unfolded alongside the soundscape created by Ensemble Windkraft, whose musicians were positioned within the landscape itself. The performance premiered on the Langkofelscharte in Italy in 2019, where dance, music, and the natural environment merged into a temporary artistic intervention in the high alpine setting.

Through moments of tension, empathy, and surrender, two performers navigate the fragile balance between difference and connection. Set against the backdrop of ongoing migration movements and the violent realities of war, Fremde Freunde becomes a physical reflection on coexistence—on what it means to remain human in the face of separation, displacement, and conflict. It is a meeting of bodies, histories, and gazes—a search for friendship within the unknown.
