Purpose of the residency
The purpose of my stay is to meet artists from Tokyo, attend concerts and performances and enjoy the city's rich and dynamic cultural landscape. My particular interests lie in Japanese forms of dance and theater.
Furthermore, I would like to exchange creative perspectives with TWS residents.
And of course I am looking forward to discovering the faces of Tokyo, its sounds, odours, colours, temperatures and flavours - and I am curious, how they will inspire my activity!

Plan during the residency
In the initial weeks, I will seek to deepen my knowledge of Japanese theatrical forms and allow them, perhaps in unexpected ways, to inspire my current and future work. This exploration may lead to a collaboration with an actor, dancer, director or choreographer from Tokyo.
Another aim will be to introduce contemporary music and improvisation to primary school children. I would like to give workshops in collaboration with a composer or performer from Tokyo in order to discuss and exchange different pedagogical concepts regarding the dissemination of contemporary music.
