DANCE & THEATRE PHOTOGRAPHY


“I think it provides a service to keep the search alive in a culture, which has engineered an environment which requires physical and sensual suppression to exist in.”

Dance is a big challange for me. As a long-time student of capoeira and relatively new to contact improvisation, I still find hard to let my rigidity go. I have to go through the labyrinth every time to surrender and find the joy. 

“Solo dancing does not exist”

Thanks to my connection with movement, I am able to capture when others engage in corporal dialogues. These are imprints, frozen or blurry words from an (un)conscious conversation and a stream of expressive search for connection. I have been working with various dance schools in Portugal and Greece, taking care of their professional photography.
