This is my habit

This is my habit — I draw to improvised music. I transform what I hear and what I see. I record, take notes, imagine, react, lurk. The things that happen here and now I call untraceable. I am a listener and a narrator. I adjust to sounds, movements and to myself. Thus, I listen more carefully.

Most of all I use the old fashioned overhead projector but I also worked with drawing with the water, chalk, huge canvas, paper, body of the dancers, walls, floor, self prepered installations... I improvise solo but I am as well fascinated by cooperating with experimental music, dance and creating the big multidisciplinary ensembles performances. I cooperated with such an artists like Phil Wachsmann, Piotr Damasiewicz, Emilio Gordoa, Anna Bogdanowicz, Eric Bauer, Misha Marx, Jon Rose, Carina Khorkordina, Kamil Korolczuk, Anil Eraslen, Nicolas Hein, Phillipe Lemoine, Adam Webster, Simon Rose, Don Malfon, Sabine Vogel, Clayton Thomas, Dag Magnus Narvesen…

Human. Error.

“Error has turned animals into men; might truth be capable of turning man into an animal again?” F. Nietzsche
In our piece we want to ask about the nature of the mistake. Can we say for certain that something is a mistake? Is mistake a valid category at all if we cannot see the broader picture and the far off consequences? We want to play with the idea that if the human race is the result of a tiny genetic misstep, then what would humans be if 500 million years ago something went differently? Would we have tails and claws? And would amphibians have underwater cities and croak programming languages?
