Performance synopsis

‘Whatever you create will be influenced by the energy you carry inside of you when you create it’ – Akiroq Brost The performance explores the concept of the body as energy generator. The artist seeks organicity resulting from the flow of physical sensations, vibrations, and following the voice of intuition. She gives herself time to develop; she also gives the audience time to tune their own bodies with the performer's.
