UNDONE, a heart score is a shared performance exploring states of motion and exertion. Following a score, two bodies run for one hour with no audience present. Following this, the piece emerges from the unraveling of the post-collapse state. It is a dialogue between movement and sound. Percussive structures crumble. Bodies enter into a meditative trance, pushing their pulses to the limit, allowing an abstract sonic and visual poem to occur, where the intelligence of the heart is employed in a search for intuition.

Secret Journey is an ongoing mosaic of dance, music, visual art, and integration of play with Yoshiko Chuma and the School of Hard Knocks productions. The Secret Journey series started in 2016 at the National Gallery in Prague under Ai Weiwei’s exhibition Law of the Journey which investigated the migration of Syrian refugees. The work was subsequently presented in Ponderosa (Stolzenhagen) and Dock 11 (Berlin) in 2017 and 2018.

FAKE Company is an international arrangement of performers, an intentionally fluid and flexible group, who discovered their attraction to each other at Ponderosa. Gathered by Kathleen Hermesdorf of ALTERNATIVA in San Francisco, FAKE Company is a container and instigator for artistic freedom within creative collaboration, embedded and embodied in ongoing practices of improvisation in dance, theater, music and visual art.

A Song For Ganges is a short movement film created at the Morni Hills Performance Art Residency in northern India, curated by Alexa Wilson. Some of the footage used in the film is shot in Rishikesh, India, at the river Ganges, documenting traces left by prayer and ritual, as it mixes with detritus and waste left visible by the receding tides of the river.

She is a queen.
She is a liar.
She is a sculpture.

She is a proud Mirahlandian.

Mirahlandia is a solo performance and social experiment investigating speculative geographies. Distorting minimalist aesthetics, Mirahlandia blends the mythological with the actual. Building a staged but persuasive facade, Mirahlandia itself is a mirage. Built before the audience as a hallucination, Mirahlandia is an artistic trick of the mind. Mirahlandia was first presented in 2017 as a part of a group exhibition in Salta Collective, Oakland, USA, in the frame of FRESH Festival in San Francisco (USA).

Rug Solo is a process-based piece, in which I have undertaken the practical work of creating a hand-knitted rug over the course of a series of performances that have been presented between 2016 and the present. This work only proceeds from material that I have received for free — the rug is knitted from leftovers and other scraps of thread that have been given to me, or which I have found or otherwise discovered. The action of presenting this work was begun in a kind of desperation — the performances began through an attempt to sell the rug as I created it, in order to be able to pay my rent. As the work developed over time, the outcome was always offered for sale, but embracing the implicit ambiguity of attempting to sell an object that did not yet exist in any completed form. Over time, the work has expanded in scope to include allusions to other tasks and repeating rituals that surround it — singing, moving, the motion of the needle, the view of the sea. The work continues to the present.

Vagittarius Rising was an experimental feminist art duo. Israeli-American Shelley Etkin and Lithuanian Agnė Auželytė came together as the Vag Sisters in 2015. Their birthplace and artistic home was Ponderosa, a rural arts centre in Stolzenhagen, Germany. Since then, they have traveled with their work in Germany, Finland, Lithuania, Estonia, India, and the USA. Straddling the pathetic and the sexy, the classy and the trashy, Vagittarius Rising has reincarnated as a band, a nation, a miracle, and a school for witches. During this time, the Vag Sisters have rocked stages, basements, and punk bars, published The Declaration of the Nation of Vag in feminist journal HYSTERIA, presented their performance piece Karma vs Kapital at nGbK in Berlin, and achieved sainthood.

Trio Series consist of three solo performances: Picture 0:Blue Water, Picture 1: White Lily, and Picture 2: Faces, which all explore different relationships, to one’s mother, to a flower, to one’s own face. Collaged out of short stories, fictional and real memories, confessions, and songs, every solo is a chapter in a non-linear personal narrative.
