Artist's statement

 

In 1997, I did a solo dance performance at City of Women Festival, titled Manifestation of an Introvert. Tamara Obrovac and Kruno Levačić were my musical accompaniment. There was a part, different from the rest of the show, dealing with memories, narration, and the rest was interaction among the three of us, changing, unpredictable, musical. Then I got it in my head that I should collaborate with another musician, to develop this further. And I met Andrea at the pizza place, I gathered wisely from his Italian, that he is a musician, warmed myself to the idea and unintentionally ended up with a mime and an actor. And I ventured to that part, like Little Red Riding Hood went to get strawberries. In the mean time, I ruminate on dance, performances, children, love, psychology, teaching, high-school graduation and once again end up in the City of Women. I understand I am to collaborate with two musicians ... Or did I catch something about Pippi Longstockings?
