Solo Performance

Detachment

2023  ·  Finland

It blows so hard today. I don't know what to feel

Detachment was a solo dance piece presented at Humina ry space. It was an event of multiple choreographic works by different artists. The event was organized and selected by members of Humina ry via an Open Call.

"Urgency palpably tastes of fear"

My piece, Detachment, was the result of my inner dialogue with my menstrual cycle. The bodily experience and battles that come and go every month. The continuous exploration of what it means (to me) to be a woman in current times and how it has changed within each year that passes.

It was a tribute to my wounded relationship with womanhood, societal pressures and taboos, physical and emotional pains — but also the beauty and power that comes with menstrual cycles.
