I began performing and making work in my early twenties. From the outset, my path was not confined to a single discipline. Alongside contemporary and modern dance, I worked in physical theatre, mime, installations, and street theatre. These different contexts and forms shaped a broad understanding of what it means to make performance: how movement communicates, how an audience encounters a work, and how meaning emerges through form, space, and presence. This diversity is visible in the performances presented here. Some lean towards dance theatre, others towards contemporary dance or physical theatre. There are fixed choreographies as well as works that rely strongly on improvisation; there are stage pieces and installations. I have performed in many performances by other makers in theatres, museums, public space, and major festivals across the Netherlands, experiences that continue to inform how I think about situation, location, and audience as integral parts of making. Before entering the contemporary field, I started as a competitive Latin American dancer. Within that circuit, an experimental freestyle category—part of the year 2000 Dutch championships—became the site of my first choreography, which won the national title. That early experience of freedom within form left a lasting imprint and set me on the path of working as a creative dancer and maker.
