Open Space 2023 – weekly online Improvisation Space with Trio Einfach Schön. The improvisation sessions began in 2021 due to the cancellation of classes during the pandemic. I was inspired in March 2023 by Amerta Movement practitioner Sandra Reeve in the spirit of sharing my practice to open the sessions to other participants. Participants share texts and pictures that arise for them during and after the sessions.
“Paperdance” September 2024 Choreographed by the dancers: Birgit Brade, Gudrun Pfeffer, Anne Pommier. Live music performed by Katrin Wolf. Commissioned by the Frauenarbeitskreis Kultur for their private view on 18th September 2024 with funding from the equal opportunities office in Paderborn.
The theme of this years exhibition by 30 women artists was „Paper“. The dance explicitly shows the private creative process through the dancers individual explorations of „paper“ as a sensory material, a resource, the range of possibilities it offers from day to day uses to the playful and abstract. As the dancers and their materials enter into relationship, the broader theme of what it means as a woman to be a creative person and visible as an artist emerges.
“The moving bench” – May 2025 Paderborn.
“A bench is an invitation to rest, to spend time just being. It offers space to watch to watch the world go by. It can also be a social space – chance encounters or a private sharing can take place here. The local Paderborner business Kirwald has created an unusual piece of furniture – the garden “bench-to-go” with a wheel. This improvisation project is a kind of living exhibition in the heart of the city. Inspired by the bench, I committed myself to a daily improvisation session for a week, leading up to a final duo with musician Andrea Briechle. How do the passers by respond to this moving resting body, in a space with much coming and going?”
This initiative is part of my research project “Resting Places, Moving Spaces”. To consciously engage with a place and influence it through movement and sound, practicing mindfulness for the spaces we inhabit and those we share them with.
