intimacies, a video-art/music/choreographic collaboration with vocal artist Yvon Bonenfant, was selected by curator Marina Tsartsara to be exhibited this February at Brighton (UK) within the Pieces to fit platform.

intimacies is unique in the world of video-dance in that it emerges from a place of encounter between extended voice, choreographic process and video art.
