Dear Alice, This is not Wonderland
What if absurdity is the only logic left?
Spiraling through rabbit holes
in a land where the clock ticks backward
and certainty melts like sugar on your tongue.
On the chessboard of power,
men move foreigners like pawns,
trading truths for tactics.
Youâve taken the bitter blue pill,
your vision blurs, reality folds.
Go ask Alice,
She already swallowed it whole.

Some snippets from the solo piece I created this year and performed at @fontys_carteblanche
Entering the stage again with this piece after a long time without performing was a blast and reassured me that this is what I am supposed to do.
Thank you to @fontys.danceartsincontext for all the guidance and opportunities.
Also a big thank you to @schauspielfabrikberlin and all its excellent teachers. What I learned in the 3 months intensive acting course played a big role in creating this piece. I loved to enter this journey of combining theatre and dance and feel like it is just the beginning of the artist that I am about to become.
If you want to watch the whole piece check out the link in my bio.

Graduatedđ
Itâs been a wild ride with lots of ups and downs, a lot of sweat and tears but even more laughter thanks to all my favourite people I have met <3
Donât know how I wouldâve survived without you!!
Feeling proud for how much I have grown and grateful for all the opportunities and guidance during the last four years @fontys.danceartsincontext
The world is not ready for this next generation of young artistsâ¨

New York - 2024
My biggest adventure yet. When I was 15 I visited New York for the first time and thought it would be so cool to live there for a short period of time. So here we are not even ten years later living and dancing in New York.
A dream come true!!
I am so happy for all the people I have met and new friends Iâve made along the way.
I feel very fortunate to have experienced these 3 months and my heart is full with gratitude.
An Mama und Papa: Danke, dass ihr es mir ermĂśglicht die Welt zu sehen und fĂźr euren Support.
Ich habe euch liebâ¤ď¸

âNever is a word that should never be used.
Everyone has had at least one thing
they promised to never do
and then they did.â
Happy to share these pictures from my first ever solo creation. Leonie is somebody that feels very familiar but is hard to identify with. She is (super) pretty, very kind and maybe a little tiny bit guilty. But who isnât right?
Thank you to @fontys_carteblanche & @fontys.danceartsincontext for giving me the opportunity and space to bring this character alive.

âBefore I go on stage I shake and jump to keep my body active. Then I try to calm my nerves by closing my eyes and taking three deep breaths. Lastly I remind myself to enjoy and I go.
I admire performers who use authenticity to take me into their own world in a way that I will be sitting on the edge of my seat trying to get a closer look. Also I love to see someoneâs honesty and pureness through their eyes and gaze.â
From our last photography class where we played around with lightđĽ
Thank you @cisco_costa_ for capturing me in this moment!!
