When I travel around and explore the world, I always bring my dance moves with me: set them free in front of an elaborate cathedral,  guide them to spiral around a medieval castle,  sail them to catch the wind on top of a cliff, let them to leap over a bridge of rainbow, to look for mystery spirits hiding in the forests or the shadows of ancient ruins, to fall with the snow flakes, to chase the celestial glow of sunset…

This is one of my favourite ways of interacting with the space, light and sound, created by nature and human civilisation; one of the moments I truly transcend.

This on-going project, uses cameras to capture series of dancing bliss - the creative forms of dancers; the labyrinth of colours, lights and shadows; the beautiful dialogues between individuals and their sensory surroundings. Hopefully it will inspire you to reimagine yourself:

Imagine you are a child again, the entire world is your playground

Imagine you are magic paint brushes, any space in the world is your canvas

Imagine you break away from all the social restrictions and being completely free to move

Imagine you are not a human being, you don't even have a predefined shape or form, just a stream of conscious or a flux of energy and you are free to be whatever you want
