“For me Performance Art means communication and collective work: the communication with body, space and coincidence. The fail as constant companion. My artistic work oscillates between different genres. In my performances, films, interventions and installations. I deal with social environment and liminal spaces. I interact with social architecture, use my own gestures to investigate. My own borders are stressed all the time and adapted to trigger experienced transformation-processes.”
