the point of departure of beauty I-X is a score of ten choreographic poems - a poetry that possesses a choreographic capacity, and which can be read as both poetry and dance. this score will be trans-created through the dancers' and pianist’s reading and practice, as they establish a sensorial relationship to the text.

time and light, movement and sound interweave into a cycle where simplicity, intimacy and transience create patterns and textures – with a precision leaving us open for the unimagined.
