THE LIN___Ǝ
"Mirroring of intergenerational trauma traveling through to the next generation. The contemporary dance piece THE LIN___E speaks how intergenerational trauma affects our everyday life. How we get stuck to its orbit again and again...
Trauma separates.
But brings us together."
THE LIN___Ǝ was my first ever full-length contemporary dance piece I completed as a part of my studies in Tampere Conservatory.
The process of making THE LIN___Ǝ taught me plenty. I discovered my own way of directing and guiding the dancers through the process. I learned how to be sensitive to the dancers needs and thoughts, as the topic of the piece was quite personal and emotional.
Directing and choreographing THE LIN___Ǝ set the ground for all my future work as a choreographer.
