«Larysa's background comprises theatre, dance and orchestra. Influences of her diverse practise can be seen in each of her performances, which she uses as an opportunity to overcome her fears. 'I see the works as an opportunity to cross the borders I normally wouldn't cross in daily life. Sometimes that requires me to use my body but oftentimes it simply means questioning what is socially acceptable and redefining the connections between human beings.' Her showcase is inspired by the rich and diverse Himalayan landscape. 'The research I want to present in KYTA is driven by my interest in consciousness, its connection and influences on the biological body and scientific advances that might enhance one part or the other. It is an attempt to approach performance in an "scientific" way and in the same time treat science in a poetic way.' PLATFORM |
