Body Territory - Practicing the Act Dancing of Dancing Together
The project maintains a dialogue with other professionals and people curious about dance. Observing and listening to other bodies and their relationship to the theme is crucial to evolve the practice. The intention is not to portray no one's stories but to look for points in common and strenghten relations. In this place, we can create an imaginary bridge, a vessel to disclose topics hidden behind our preconceptions or yet not discovered.

Photography - a collaboration with Marina Therechov
Like almost everyone, I am not fully aware of how I appear to others while I think, feel, and speak. So, I am cautious of all these actions, which refrain my emotions to a restricted body.
The photographer Marina Therechov and dancer Leonardo Rodrigues dived into a photographic performative action where fluids in a human body open up the possibility of intense emotional states.
From a photographic studio in Mannheim, the artists examine how the performer could strengthen the ability of the body's movement to expand through space.
