SKIN
MY
Under My Skin is a piece about how humans and artists are constantly auditioning in life to be seen and to fit in. We audition to belong on social media, in relationships, or even to align with the opinions of those in power. In the process of trying to fit in, we lose touch with our inner creature, our true selves. The piece features an actual creature, representing the reflection of who we are and what we carry inside. Inspired by life itself, Under My Skin reminds us that, one way or another, our inner creature will appear, revealing our true value and colors. Under My Skin was first choreographed for the dancers of Kansas City Ballet II in 2024. In 2025, it became one of the winners of the YAGP Creative Fellowship, leading to a new creation for the students of São Paulo School of Dance in Brazil.
THE SHAPE
OF LIFE
Inspired by my religious background and the biblical idea that God is the potter and we are the clay, The Shape of Life, reflects on personal events of life that have shaped us into who we are today. Questioning our nurture, our past, our present, and what lies ahead, the piece dives into early recollections, evolving values, traumas and beliefs, emotions, love and loss, scars, successes and failures, life and death.

Life is always going to grow feathers on you, with the purpose of making you fly higher to get you where you are supposed to be and to help you discover who you are meant to be. Some of them will come from moments of pain, loss or darkness, but some will grow out of moments of love, happiness or joy.
