/ How do you feel that the audience
is receiving your work? Is it understood?
: Yes, but they need some time. People will come back a week
or two after the performance, with amazing responses, and
tell me; they need to let it go through them. This is not
entertainment, it is difficult, advanced. There are many segments
and many layers, mental layers, levels of insight. It seems
like people that have been experiencing challenges in life
recently
have the tendency to respond immediately.
/ Please mention something of that which might come through,
to those who understand.
: Well, clearly the audience is, in a sense, bombarded with
love and care, for that is always the basis for my works.
Existential, art. |
/ You seem to be perfectly relaxed
when you move about, when you talk - even though you are more
active than most people.
: Every part of the body must be alive, can be alive, can
be part of your intelligence, your movement. When you listen
deeply with all of yourself you typically become relaxed.
Of course it is also a matter of discipline. Two thousand
hours of ballet training does help, but it is also a question
of philosophy, of epistemology, of how you feel life. And
how one feel about life is transported to the audience in
each performance.
/ In watching your works, one feel stricken by the sense of
urgent attention - to life, to beauty, to relationship.
: My epistemology is optimism I wish to transfer it
to the audience and give them hope, contribute to the sense
of there being a meaning in being
alive, in supporting harmony, and so on.
