Poetry – Dance -Slam – three words that form the motif of this performance: a sound poem with car signs. The signs form words, concise words that describe my body. Sometimes the words fall to the ground and my magnetic shoes catch them. I dance with the car signs and shuffle them like poker cards.

Dancing lesson
THE DANCING LESSON shows four different dance lessons. They demonstrate the use of special dance shoes. These are prepared with different objects in such a way that they produce individual sound structures while dancing. The simultaneous playing of the four different dance sequences results in a visual as well as sonic collage.

THE CREATION OF WEARABLE TRASH
We believe that the best way to reduce waste from used Corona masks is to show how beautifully this plastic material can be transformed into art fashion.
Pattex
I have been a flat-foot shoe insole wearer since I was five years old. Since then, my feet have been inventing dance solos for me. The glue under my shoes is the allegory of this trauma. The top half of the video shows the dancer’s good face to this sticky game.
The Steinway
The diatonic scale refers to a step sequence of five whole tone steps and two large half step steps. It traverses the space of an octave. Provençal folk dances follow the diatonic scale.
Ytong
The soles of the flamenco shoes are prepared with steel spikes. I stand on the Ytong stone and dance a Zapateado – without slipping. The stone breaks and is ground to dust by my spikes. The dance is simultaneously an act of destruction and a sculptural process.
Spare tire
Four car tires are firmly attached to my legs and arms. Car tires are associated with movement.
However, my range of motion is limited by the heaviness of the tires. I let them slide, trembling over the floor, and lift them like weights until they fall, squeaking, to the ground.
