๐๐ฌ๐ก๐ฅ๐๐ฒ๐ก๐จ+๐๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ข๐ค๐ง๐๐ฎ๐ create performative encounters that interweave dance, poetry, music, graphic design, and scenography. Their collaboration has been nurtured by friendship since 2019.
They believe in performance as a prefigurative practiceโa political, intimate process of transforming and being transformed. More than a focus on specific thematics, their processes propose a way of being with the world that confronts harshness through vulnerability and playfulness.
Both graduated from the Dancer/Maker Bachelor's programme at ArtEZ University of the Arts in 2022, where they met. Born in Singapore (Ashley) and Germany (Domenik), they currently share a base in Amsterdam.
In their new project ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ง๐๐ก (๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐ข๐๐๐ง๐ญ), ashleyho+domeniknaue traverse interiors of lostness, loneliness, and yearning. In a world of FAST FAST FAST and BIGGER BIGGER, they find themselves disoriented and adrift. They want to feel closer. Theyโre going places, but where to?
Floating in indeterminate parts of an ocean, two voices call out, listening for response. They dance a long poem, between moments of meeting and not meeting.
๐ You are welcome to the work-in-progress sharing of The Bench (by accident) on Friday April 3rd, at 4pm. DM us to book your spot!
