New piece Smuggled Tea Time ready for touring!

After its premiere on February 14 at Kaaistudios, Brussel for Moussem Cities: Istanbul, Smuggled Tea Time is now ready for touring. Updates soon...

Smuggled Tea Time is the new chapter in my creative collaboration with Mustafa Zeren.

It is an invitation from the Kurdish-Turkish duo Mustafa+Fatih where they welcome the audience to witness an hour of their collaborative conversation towards making a dance piece together at the margins of the international contemporary dance scene over a glass of smuggled tea.

What Now So Far

What Now So Far has the intention of knowing oneself with a view of the Turkish art field from the eyes of four people. A joint reconstruction with personal experience and memory is the focus of this intention. The performance, tries to grasp experiences and subjects in various dimensions, by looking at them from different distances.
