Wind Etudes: Ennoia is a choreographic installation about wind. The piece will approach wind as a physical-visual phenomenon and a metaphor for the invisible things, but become visible in matter, specifically the body. The installation will combine different sizes of video projections of wind videos, which I am filming in Finnish nature and around the Baltic Sea, and me dancing in the installation space. The movement is durational, representing a body being moved by the wind. In 1-3 hours (let’s see), the movement transforms into an interactive, subtle play with the audience, where the audience is moving me, thus drawing a parallel between the wind and people, affecting me/ my body. 

One of my great inspirations is music and understanding the body as resonant, vibrant matter.  I love the quest of tracking down the in-formation of my body through improvisation, looking for understanding of the psycho-somatic being-alive. It’s just amazing to me.
