ABATE
An exploration of living inside uncertainty, where comfort and play collide with fear and grief. It looks at how familiar rituals and games shift from grounding to unsettling as the world destabilises. Rather than seeking resolution, the work stays with the mess, tracing how we keep moving as everything keeps changing.
WOMEN LIKE YOU, LIKE ME
Women Like You is a choreographic work that explores the many layers within every woman, from strength and vulnerability to rebellion, playfulness, and sensuality. These sides exist together, at times supporting one another and at times colliding in tension. Through moments of humour and honesty, the piece reflects familiar struggles and strengths, inviting a sense of recognition and shared understanding.
TAG, YOU'RE IT!
This work explores what happens when we stop performing stability and instead move through uncertainty as it is. Rituals, games, and familiar comforts become charged spaces where play, fear, joy, and grief collide. Rather than offering resolution, it stays with the tension, reflecting how we continue living as the ground keeps shifting and the game keeps changing.
