After a brief year at the BA Artisteducater in Dance at ArtEZ, she graduated from the Mime School in Amsterdam in 2021. Her work explores themes of transformation and often takes on an atmospheric, ambiguous, and subtly unsettling quality. With a strong interest in experimentation, she integrates tools such as deepfake, motion capture, and 3D-scanning, always grounding her research in the physical experience of both performers and audience.
