Me Ani (‘Who Am I’) moves from a question “who are we really once all the external definitions and things are stripped away?
With this work that will be presented for the first time in Italy during the Visavì Gorizia Dance Festival, what do you most want to convey/tell the audience?
I want to invite the audience to feel. To feel free to feel emotions. The emotion felt reveals to everyone the steps of his memory construction : joys, fears, passions and disgusts.
Emotional memory is very intimate as a primitive protection. It is a universal subject.

According to your personal experience, a border is
The border is a limit, either not to be crossed, or delimiting your territory of freedom; thus, it is both a constraint or protection in relation to otherness and, on the other hand, a free zone.
It can be physical and terrestrial, it can be social, it can be psychological and deserving of being surpassed. Driven by the irrepressible desire to conceptualize through movement and music, my mind will only have limits in respecting the integrity of the performing dancer; I am not afraid of value judgment, authentic art is beautifully free by its very nature.
As if you should explain it to a child: why have you started dancing?
Dance, movement and creation are my passion. This is my way of expressing myself, like another language.
A piece of advice to a starting company
