Here are three words for you: Creativity, Freedom, Healing. I hope these words resonate within you. For me personally these three words refer to very important elements of my life.

Creativity is a fundamental aspect of my human experience. It fuels my personal growth and fulfillment. It is the fire, that burns within me, that keeps me warm, awake and nourished. Creativity plays a central role in the expression of my culture and my identity. But it also serves as a bridge between cultures, fostering my cross-cultural understanding and appreciation.

Freedom, in the context of my creativity, refers to the liberation from constraints and limitations, both external and internal. I often enter a state of flow where my sense of time and self-awareness diminish, allowing for uninhibited exploration and expression. This freedom fosters a sense of empowerment, as I feel liberated to explore my ideas, emotions, and identities without fear of judgment or restriction.

Furthermore, my creativity can serve as a means of healing and catharsis. I process and make sense of my experiences, emotions, and traumas. It enables me to channel my inner turmoil into tangible forms of expression. In this way, creativity becomes a vehicle for self-discovery, introspection, and healing.

During the 11 days of the workshop that we will spend together, it will be my pleasure and joy to accompany you in your personal creative process, where you will express yourself freely. Our common goal will be to create an audiovisual projection show. There is no right or wrong way to do this. You can do it in any way you want, be it poetic, conceptual, text-based, abstract, narrative etc. I hope we will have fun together and that you will enjoy this opportunity.
