There’s no thinking involved in my choreography... I don’t work through images or ideas. I work through the body... If the dancer dances, which is not the same as having theories about dancing or wishing to dance or trying to dance, everything is there. When I dance, it means: this is what I am doing Picture Quote #1

Light or luminosity is created by the way elements are juxtaposed. They become reflective and a radiance comes from putting different things together Picture Quote #1
